Habitat for Humanity

This summer, we helped build a house for a deserving family in Shakopee during the week of August 1-5. Click here to see photos of this year's crew as well as photos from previous years.

The Habitat Dedication for the homes we helped build was on December 17, 2011. Click here for photos and more information.

Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian organization dedicated to eliminating substandard housing and homelessness worldwide and to making adequate, affordable shelter a matter of conscience and action. Habitat is founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, decent, affordable place to live in dignity and safety.

Mission Trips

All Saints Lutheran Church provides opportunities for congregation members and others who are interested, to participate in mission trips and other related mission programs. The Bible calls us to build the kingdom of God and to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Mission experiences are a unique way to answer this call in both word and service.

Mexico Mission Trip

March 30 - April 7, 2012

All Saints Lutheran Church provides opportunities for congregation members and others to participate in mission trips and other related mission programs. Since 1997, All Saints has taken intergenerational groups to Mexico to work and share God’s love with the Mexican people. All Saints began going to Casa Hogar Elim orphanage in 2001. The purpose of the Mexico Mission Trip is:

  • To share the Good News of Jesus Christ through relationships that we develop with the children and staff of Casa Hogar Elim, an orphanage in Nuevo Laredo on the U.S./Mexico border.
  • To serve the children and staff of Casa Hogar Elim along with members of the poor communities surrounding the orphanage through children’s ministry, feeding programs, and work projects.
  • To provide members of the Mexico Mission Team an intergenerational mission opportunity where they can
    identify and develop the their unique skills and gifts to be used for God’s service.


Who can Participate in the Mexico Mission Trip?

  • Adults (we’ve had all ages)
  • Families (we recommend not bringing a child younger than ten)
  • High School Students (9th – 12th grade)
  • Youth (7th-8th grade) can travel with the group without a parent provided there is an adult who has agreed to be a “mission parent” for the youth on the trip.

To participate, you need to fill out a Mission Trip application with information about background, experience, and skills. Click on the links below to open a PDF which you can read online and print.
