Our Mission
God has called us and we have responded to the mission of spreading the gospel to the Quechua people. These trips will therefore have a focus of evangelism and biblical training. We will be running soccer camps, teaching Bible classes in the elementary and secondary schools, and leading Bible studies and evangelism events for adults. Additional, we will be identifying and meeting some of the physical needs of the people we will be serving. This will include some of the following: Medical supplies and treatment, school supplies, distribution of Bibles, construction projects, etc…
For more information about what we will be doing on these trips contact Doug Boddy.

How To Prepare
If you are interested in going some important things to make sure you have include:
- A passport that is valid for 6 months after your return to the US.
- Current Hepatitis A and Tetanus shots.
Because we are going to a high altitude, it is recommended that you start walking so that you are a little more physically fit. It would be to your benefit (but not required) to learn some Spanish phrases and verses. We will have a translator with us, but he/she will not be with everyone at all times. Each team will meet at least a couple of times before going to prepare themselves spiritually and culturally for the trip.
In the coming weeks we will be posting a packet of information for those interested in going on any of the three mission trips this next year. Prayerfully consider if you would be part of any of these mission teams!
