While Mission Impact is making a difference in the lives of Guatemalan children and adults, MI Servant Teams give you the opportunity to participate in what God is doing in Guatemala! Help us build, teach, serve, heal. . .the opportunities are endless!
We have 6 areas in which MI Servant Teams can participate.
- Construction: adding on to already existing facilities i.e. schools, churches, homes or constructing new facilities i.e. hospitals, schools, childrens homes, feeding centers, etc. in one of the rural communities in which MI ministers.
- Medical/Dental Services: forming your own medical/dental team to minister in rural villages along side a Guatemalan physician through the local church.
- Teaching: bringing a teaching team to minister in one of the local churches or schools, providing training to pastors, women, youth, and children i.e. VBS
- Appropriate Technology: working with local families in rural communities to build fuel effecient stoves to reduce the amount of smoke in the home and the related respiratory sickness; and building cisterns to collect rain water to provide more water to improve health and hygiene.
- Service Projects: pouring cement floors for poor families, serving the staff of the schools, churches, and ministries that MI partners with i.e. construction, painting, cleaning etc.
- Christian Education: partnering with the administrative and teaching staff in one of the four schools that MI currently supports including Special Education.
Our goal at MI is to use your practical skills and gifts in service to the Guatemalan people, while casting vision and facilitating growth in you as a Servant Team participant! Our strategy is that you, as a Servant Team member, will participate in an outreach designed by the on-field recipients according to felt needs as well as interact, in a meaningful way, with your team throughworship, devotions, and lively dialogue!
Whether you are a student, in a career or retired, MI Servant Teams have opportunities for you to experience culture and the Kingdom of God in a way that no other event can! Will you make the choice and take the risk to demonstrate the compassion of Jesus to a people created in His image yet so disadvantaged?
Mission Impact Servant Teams are. . .Mobilizing the Body of Christ into the World that God so loves! |
