Building God's kingdom together
Together, Texans on Mission Builders bring glory and honor to God while assisting ministries that might not be able to afford these costs on their own.
Over the past 20 years, members have used their hands - and their tools - in the construction of more than 1,600 church and camp facilities, saving these ministries millions of dollars in construction costs.
There's a place for you
Whether you're an experienced foreman or a hobbyist, there's a place for you on the Builder's team.
What do you need to volunteer?
- A desire to serve.
- Some comfort with tools and a willingness to learn new skills.
- A day, week or several weeks to work on a project.
- A place to stay (Texans on Mission can help with this, particularly with projects at camps).
