Azusa Pacific University Announces Baja Bound Partnership
The Center for Student Action at Azusa Pacific University has designated Baja Bound as a new partner for student missions in Mexico.
APU’s history of service has been significant for decades. As Baja Bound’s Director John Rose stated, “Mexico Outreach had a phenomenal impact for over 50 years, and we are excited to be part of that legacy.” In 2019 Baja Bound assumed responsibility for APU’s Ensenada operations, and now they have been entrusted with additional Mexico trips for the University. “APU remains committed to service in Mexico,” assured Karen Rouggly of the Center for Student Action, “and we look forward to expanding our service opportunities…with Baja Bound.”
Former Mexico Outreach Team Member Heather (Richards) Tomscak, will lead the transition and onboarding of groups who are interested in serving with Baja Bound. If you are interested in partnering with Baja Bound, you may contact Heather at htomscak@bajabound.org.

A special moment
😢 Last weekend we took a break from our house build 🏠 and visited a favorite children’s home and witnessed an amazing sight👇
When big burly 💪 men put down their house-building hammers to receive hugs at the home for disabled children, 👶🏻 we’re reminded that the heart ♥️ is the most valuable muscle of all.
A new collaboration to better serve Baja
Effective October 1, 2019, Baja Bound has begun a separate partnership with Rumbo Al Valle de la LIBERTAD, a new non-profit based in Ensenada, to better serve the working poor of Mexico. Moving forward, Baja Bound will continue to help raise support, conduct outreach to the United States, and help prepare groups to travel to Mexico. But all operations, staff, and activities in Mexico will occur under the separate authority of Baja Bound’s Mexican partner organization, Rumbo Al Valle de la LIBERTAD.
In recognition of the working poor
On Labor Day we are honored to have met and and know so many of hardworking field workers, and we stand in awe of their incredibly high work ethic and commitment to their families and communities.
Don’t EVER repeat the lie “the poor are lazy” in front of us…
