WAYS TO DONATE

RIO MISSION TRIP

July 14-23, 2023

​

GRYM is headed to Rio de Janiero, Brazil, with YoungFriends (a ministry of Let's Start Talking)

...and you can help make that possible!

​

​

What is YoungFriends?

Let's Start Talking sends hundreds of short-term missionaries every year to sites all over the world to spread the gospel through the offer of free English lessons.

​

YoungFriends is the teen branch of this ministry. It allows teens in other countries to learn English, while also having fun and meaningful interactions with Christian teens from the U.S.

​

​

Who Is Going?

This mission trip is for current 9th-12th graders of Garden Ridge Youth Ministry who are ready to share their faith and set a godly example.

​

The group will be led by Trane and Tamara Wyatt (with their kids tagging along) and a handful of adult volunteers from Garden Ridge.
