There will be an opportunity for a variety of ministries, both physical and spiritual.

What is Our Schedule?

We are traveling to the city of Comitancillo located in western highlands of Guatemala. Below is a general schedule of planned activities; however, God sometimes opens up opportunities to do things that we didn’t originally plan to do.

  • Saturday: Travel
  • Sunday: Half day of travel; orientation
  • Monday-Thursday: Ministry
  • Friday: Travel; sightseeing
  • Saturday: Travel home

What are the accommodations?

Your team will stay at Mission Housing Ministries which is set up like a boarding house with shared bathrooms down the hall.

What will we eat?

The Mission House cooks prepare meals for our teams using cleaning and food preparation processes that help keep teams healthy and strong for ministry. The meals are always good and have an authentic local flair.
