Mission Trips flying to Yucatán, Mexico
Yucatán Peninsula is in the southeast part of Mexico. We will be flying back for our 5th year to continue to invest in ministering to many we have built life-long relationships with. Our good friend from Pennsylvania who we’ve known for years has a family with three boys that have lived there with a Christian ministry and have been hosting numerous groups for over 17 years and have never had any safety concerns as they serve God. We stay in a hotel actually in Cancún but just about 30 minutes past where most of the tourist locations are, there’s many people in Cuna Maya that are overlooked and in great need. We want to continue to help and minister the love of Jesus to them. and have seen great ministry success. EGP has taken teams there the past few summers and have had some awesome mission trips. We do some ministry that is unique for them.
We will be doing house visits delivering groceries, encouraging words & prayer, outreaches and 3 days of VBS for about 100 children in Mexico.
You can be a part of this team with a wide variety of ways to help based on your giftings and personality. We understand some are outgoing and like to be an “out front” person while others prefer to be “behind the scenes” and both are needed. There’s options to help perform dramas, possible help with the worship band, serving at outreaches, praying for many and helping in a different ways. We will be putting on an Encounter Night and supplies will be gathered for the many that are in need.
You can be a part of reaching those that need the truth and love of Jesus.
After our week of ministry, we’ll wrap things up by enjoying God’s creation on the beautiful Caribbean beach and snorkeling with the amazing sea-life.
Total cost for everything should be between $1,700 to $1,900. Get your $150 FLIGHT deposit and registration form in by Thurs., Nov. 20, 2025. This will lock you in for the trip. We’ll have a group flight, last year’s rate for the plane ticket portion was $634 to $667. Wait for later batches, they cost more. (Payment Schedule $$$ for the rest.)
When you actually pay your deposit usually determines which deal you get for your flight, so that’s a big factor of the trip’s cost. (If you need to change anything on your flight, AA Group Reservations will re-ticket yours to that day’s current rate, which usually increases as we go.) The closer we get to the trip, usually the plane ticket price continues to cost more. Book in advance for a better deal and before the flight books up. Depending on when you’re registering for the mission trip, you may need to pay the flight in full then. Also another way to save money is being thrifty when buying your meals there.
One day we will have a fun excursion by taking a boat to a nearby island, Isla Mujeres. We may have some that choose to opt out and not to do the snorkel boat tour and just shop around the island, which can also be a way to save money. Would need to notify us 2 months in advance.
Breakdown is …
1. FLIGHTS from DFW when bought well in advance have usually been the best price. Last year our 3rd batch of group tickets went up to $667. Getting them sooner should be cheaper than those. We’ll price check soon. 1st come, 1st served. Wait any longer and the prices can increase more if there’s availability for another batch.
* Need to pay EGP a $150 non-refundable deposit that will lock you in on a great deal (this is separate from the earlier $150 REGISTRATION deposit). Then you don’t need to pay us the remaining cost of your flight until Sun. March 1st, 2025 and another benefit is you’ll be sitting together with the group. We meet at the DFW airport on that Sat. 3 hours before departure. The terminal and gate # are t.b.a. Airline allows 1 free carry-on, 1st checked bag $35, 2nd is $45 and 3rd is $200 ! :0 Pay both ways. (Other people may be flying in from out of state.) WARNING – Again these group plane tickets are only while they last, meaning we will only have a certain amount of tickets with a special locked-in rate! Please make your deposit asap because you don’t want to risk not getting a group ticket or worse, the flight could even fill up. Otherwise, you’ll have to book & pay your regular rate flight directly on your own and have to pay the full amount at the time of booking and will prob. not be sitting near the rest of the group.
2. Aside from the flight cost, there is the week’s hotel lodging, transportation & all the gas, the day to island trip, you’ll pay EGP $975 to cover all of these (& 3 meals included). This is a nice hotel so lodging won’t be “roughing it” like at many of our past mission trips. Watch video of the hotel.
3. All MEALS & snacks – bring that $150 to $200 with you (card or cash). Again the 3 VBS lunches are included with your payments. Our hotel offers an optional breakfast buffet. There’s a restaurant there in the hotel. Also there’s a coffee shop with drinks, possibly sandwiches, muffins, fruit cups, etc. on site at the hotel which may be open 24/7. (There’s NO mini-fridges in rooms but there could be a small coffee maker. There’s an ice machine on one floor.) Meals when we’re out, average about $10. If you are looking for the cheapest option and want to save money you could also bring granola bars and protein bars in place of some meals or just order less expensive food FYI.
We’re looking at the best options for our excursion. Included is our “fun outing”. If we visit Isla Mujeres and it’s beach we’ll be surrounded by beautiful turquoise water, you can choose to shop and go on a snorkel tour & explore the sea-life. If you don’t want to snorkel, you can opt out of that and have more time on the island. Just let us know via email by Sun. March 2nd, also make a note on the top of your registration form please.)
NOTE – There’s 3 required Prep & Prayer meetings. There will usually be one in May, one in June & one in July and are typically from 6-8:30pm. (If you’re not local /out of state, make sure to connect for live Zoom or we may have an option for videos to be uploaded.)

Below is last year’s flight times to give you a ballpark for this years.
If an individual has not been on an EGP mission trip before and is not already well-known by E.G.P. leadership, they first need to apply by having someone fill out the evaluation below. The character evaluation form should be filled out & sent in by a spiritual leader like their senior pastor or youth pastor (Eval form here)
See one way that families are being helped there…
Hear from some that were on the past mission trip…
