From March 15-22, 2025 a group of MRCS Grade 11 & 12 students, along with a few teachers, will be travelling to Esperanza Ministries. This fundraiser is to help them cover their costs. We receive 40% back for every order placed.

The purpose of this trip is to give an opportunity to the students at MRCS to serve, build community, and to grow in their faith and share with each other their journey with God.

Esperanza originally operated as a medical mission (from 1937 to 1974) to the surrounding area. Now as a camp, it offers a place of refuge, community and service to the first nations people of the region.

For the past 20 years or so, with an open invitation from Esperanza to partner with their ministry, MRCS has sent a team of students to the camp during spring break. Students volunteer their time and serve as a work team, helping prepare the camp for the summer months. In doing this we fill a needed role in the ongoing ministry of this camp. This is a great opportunity to be involved in community service.

The camp is located on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Transport is by coach and ferry via Nanaimo, Campbell River and Zeballos. Accommodation will be in dorms and cabins.
