Guatemala Mission Trips

Volunteer in Guatemala

Guatemala is known for its nature, unique culture and Mayan heritage. However, the region suffered decades of conflict, poverty and civil war. To contribute to Guatemala’s recovery and development, our volunteers take missionary trips that promote education, biblical truth and hunger relief.

Biblical Truth

Volunteers in Guatemala built a church where parishioners worshipBiblical truth is about God, life, and our hearts as human beings. Our volunteers minister biblical truth to neglected field workers and their families at Inheritance Church, a facility where Guatemalans can feel safe and welcome.

Short-term mission teams and local Guatemalans have built Inheritance Church and the accompanying Christian school. As the Inheritance Church community and school grow, so too will biblical truth and education in the Nueva Concepcion region.

Hunger Relief

Child sponsorship funds provide a meal for 15 children

Guatemala has the sixth-highest rate of chronic malnutrition in the world. Many Guatemalans live on just $2 a day and struggle to provide balanced, healthy meals for their families.

We began the Feeding Center at Inheritance School in September 2018. This hunger relief program provides breakfast five days a week for approximately 100 children. Breakfast includes a healthy, balanced meal with a gummy bear vitamin for dessert.

Education

Missionary trips support a classroom with 15 students sitting at desks

In Guatemala, many children born into poverty-stricken families don’t have the opportunity to attend school. Instead, boys head to the fields to become day laborers at age 12, while girls are expected to marry at age 14 and give birth by age 17. Education is the best way to break this cycle.

Inheritance of Life Christian School is an educational service for local children. It provides an education that enriches their lives and prepares them for the future. The school opened January 7, 2019 with more than 100 students.
