SPRING BREAK REGISTRATION CLOSED
LA SEMANA GRANDE spring break week (Ensenada, Mexico)
All of the knowledge and experience accumulated during the fall trips aid in synchronizing the planning and facilitation of the week-long service trip over spring break. During that week, hundreds of students camp out beneath the stars at night and work enthusiastically during the day on student-led teams across Ensenada. Whether it be construction, dance teams, haircutting/manicure, kitchen, medical/dental, sports, surf camps, praise and worship, or VBS, there is ample opportunity for ALL to be actively involved!
To ensure safety and efficiency, construction sites are overseen by professional contractors who volunteer their time; while the medical/dental clinics are staffed by professional clinicians who guide student teams in providing quality medical care and attention to the people of Ensenada. Additionally, Westmont faculty and staff members are extended the opportunity to participate in Potter's Clay, and many gladly take advantage of the opportunity to connect with both students and our Mexican neighbors alike.

JUNTOS fall weekend project (Ensenada, Mexico)
Throughout the course of the year, the PC core team seeks to bless the community of Ensenada in various ways. During the fall semester, students partner with the Mexican core team -- spearheaded by Pastor Ruben Castenada -- in both planning and realizing a fall weekend event: JUNTOS. Juntos weekend serves as a "preview" for the highly anticipated PC spring break week -- featuring a weekend intensive opportunity to work with either a medical, construction, sports, or VBS team in Ensenada, Mexico.
