Watch how our teams serve alongside local communities in the highlands of Western Guatemala — and how lives are changed on both sides.

Types of Mission Teams

We work with teams of all sizes and focus areas. Here are the two most common — but we can customize any trip to your church's unique calling.

🩺

Medical Mission Teams

Healthcare & Healing

Bring doctors, nurses, and medical volunteers to serve remote communities with limited access to healthcare. We coordinate clinic sites, patient intake, pharmacy, and referrals.

  • General medicine & pediatrics
  • Dental & vision clinics
  • Health education & hygiene training
  • Medicine procurement & pharmacy setup

Construction Mission Teams

Construct and repair homes, churches, and community centers in underserved villages. No construction experience needed — our local masons lead the work and teach your team.

  • New home construction (concrete block)
  • Church & school repairs
  • Water filtration systems
  • Playgrounds & community spaces
