GUATEMALA MISSION
“There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” - Galatians 3:28
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS TRIP?
Adults, parents, and students (completed 8th-12th at the end of the 2025-2026 school year) are invited to join our team in Guatemala to serve alongside the local church in the town of Chimaltenango. Participants will help to meet local urgent care needs and share the love of Jesus through a pop-up medical clinic.
HOW WILL WE SERVE?
Doctors, nurses, and experienced medical personnel are invited to join the team by providing basic care to underprivileged communities. Non-medical personnel are needed as well and will help by checking vitals, providing eye exams, prayer and counseling, and stepping into any additional needs that arise throughout the week.
