Chiapas: Missions Adventure!

One of the poorest regions in the western hemisphere, where malnutrition and poverty take their toll, where people still live in tribal villages far off the beaten track, where thousands still need the Gospel… it’s a mission trip destination for the adventurous who are willing to go offroading to take spiritual nourishment to those who desperately need it. Christians in Chiapas are also in need of encouragement. While it is safe for outsiders to be Christians, many natives still face active persecution and discrimination for their faith.

Do you enjoy working with kids? Do you long to share the Gospel? Are you willing to rough it? If that describes you, you’re the kind of person we need on the Chiapas teams!
