Weather you are considering being a missionary, would like to take a missions trip, or be an intern, we’d love to have you come visit us here in Chile.
We have thoroughly enjoyed the groups and individuals/interns that have come to be a part of our ministry. These mission trips not only leave a lasting impact on the people we are serving, they leave an even bigger impact on those who come. We would be honored to partner with you in this way.
Knowing Spanish is not a requirement. You can come weather you know how to speak Spanish or not. We have many different ways one can help without a need to speak the language, all’s we need is hands and feet who are willing to come serve underneath a national brother/sister in Christ as we all serve together.
Santiago, Chile is a fairly modern city. The country of Chile is stable economically and is relatively the most stable country in South America until recent political motivated violence. It has typically been a great place for one to “get their feet wet” in missions and also is strategic hub to focus on in order to reach the rest of South America and the world.
Oportunities to Serve Include:
- In Season Camp Trip. We have develped a once a year trip for you to come help with the operations of our summer camp ministry in January/Feb of every year. Your kids and teens could even come and participate as campers depending on the week you come. You’d be sleeping the majority of the nights in a tent, with a couple of nights being hosted by a Chilean family. – CLICK HERE to contact us about applying for this trip that we hold every year in January/February our summer time. ________________________________________________________________________________
- Teaching at an all English Speaking Christian School that serves Pre-K to 12th grade. Housing Is provided on campus. This is a school run by ABWE and is always looking for teachers from the USA to come teach. ________________________________________________________________________________
- Interships: Come for an extended period of time to get your feet wet in missions. You can come and we can work with you to receive college credits from your Bible college or Christian university, or come just to see if missions could be in your future. _________________________________________________________________________________
- Late June/Early July trip to help put on and run a daily vacation bible school during the winter break here in Chile! We have had a church bring down their DVBS materials and run a DVBS in our church here in Chile after their DVBS they had in the USA. You’d be staying in Chilean family homes and helping run the DVBS held during the June/July winter break from school here in Chile. _________________________________________________________________________________
