Mission Week
For many years, Derry Church members have set aside a week in June to work locally or travel as far away as Nicaragua to participate in mission work. In 2013, teams will return to Nicaragua to build cinderblock houses and lead vacation Bible school and participate in a wide range of local projects. For more information on how to get involved, contact the church office.
