Description of Mission Work:

Suggested “Pre-Reqs” for this trip:

 

A number of Spanish-speakers can help, but are not necessary. The labor can be very intensive, but there are all kinds of different tasks for people to do. We have had Christians at all different places and stages and all were positively impacted for Christ

Suggested time period for preparation and team building for this trip:

 

We meet together for about 6-8 weeks and the final three weeks had team building as a focus.
