Strong Tower Ministries Inc. (STM) is a Christian non-denominational ministry that facilitates meaningful serving opportunities for volunteer travelers into the Baja region and local Baja residents. We believe in serving others. Each individual is uniquely equipped to show God’s love through different ways of service.
Since 2005, STM has facilitated over 1,000 separate serving trips allowing more than 10,000 people (ages 5 - 90) to make a tangible difference in the lives of others. Strong Tower Ministries provides a “door to door” serving experience including: trip agendas, transportation, serving destinations, service projects, meal planning, and lodging accommodations.
STM Vans depart from locations within the United States originating in Los Angeles, Orange County, or San Diego. Most trip destinations are in northern Baja ranging from as little as 3 miles across the U.S. boarder for a custom surfing trip up to 75 miles south of the border to La Misión, Baja, Mexico.
Custom group trips-to-serve can be reserved in advance for one day trips, once a month, or annual trips to the same or different locations per request.
Trip Duration and Types of Trips:
Majority of Trips to Serve are 1 day round trip or overnight. Custom week long are available.
Service trips fall into 2 categories:
1. Open Trips: These are trips that are pre-scheduled on our calendar with a
set destination, scope of service, lodging, meals, transportation, and duration. These trips are open to anyone that wants to sign up until the trip reaches maximum capacity (usually 12-50 group size).
2. Closed Trips: These are customized trips for 1 specific group (junior high/high school,
college, company, small group, neighbors, church, etc.). The group leader decides date(s), duration, trip agenda, serving objectives, meal/lodging/transportation options.
Trip Costs:
Trip costs vary based on trip duration, number of people in your group, serving
locations, meal expectations, lodging accommodations, and service project budgets. We are here to serve YOU as well as those you are serving, so a lot of time and effort goes into pre-planning with your trip leader to make sure you receive the serving experience desired based on these factors. The goal is to make service trips a reasonably affordable part of your calendar.
Please call to discuss your trip to serve questions - (909) 255-0252.
(Your first trip to serve, 1 day round trip, will greatly impact how you view service and missions.)
Serving Opportunities:
Realizing that we all have different gifts, abilities, talents, and passions in respect to serving, Strong Tower Ministries has partnered with a variety of great Baja, faith based non-profit organizations, churches, and individuals that STM volunteers come alongside to assist in multiple ways.
