Get Directions
Registration fees do NOT include transportation to and from the sites. Each church group must provide vehicle(s) and adult driver(s) for the entire mission experience regardless of whether you fly or drive to the site. The vehicles you bring will be used to transport small groups to the work site each day, so 12-passenger vans or mini-vans are preferred. Cars do not facilitate the transportation of an entire small group in one vehicle, so please do not bring them. If you wish to bring a bus, please check with the Host Team to see if this is acceptable before you make arrangements. If your group is unable to provide van transportation, please have a youth leader call the ThereforeGo Ministries office to discuss options and additional charges.
Lethbridge (YQL) or Calgary (YYC) for international. Please DO NOT book airfare until you have received email confirmation from ThereforeGo Ministries that you have been placed at this site.
Lethbridge is an arid, semi-desert climate. It’s hot and dry in the summer and sunblock and moisturizer is important. We can get strong winds; gusts have been over 100 km/h.
The region has a high level of homelessness and poverty. We have a large indigenous population. The area is shaped by the river valley and coulees and we have the largest active train trestle bridge in Canada.
