PP Spring 2019: Peru

What if you could take a semester to set aside the books, serve the local people of Peru, all while going deeper with God than you ever imagined?

Take three months to step outside your comfort zone and join other Christians on this life-changing missions adventure into South America. 

In just a few months, you could be among a team of 10-15 missionaries serving in the country of Peru. Your focus for these three months is to be the hands and feet of Jesus, living a lifestyle like the early disciples did.

You want to find your role in the kingdom. You are searching for something more. You are trying to figure out God’s plan for your life. You want to go and live like Jesus did and serve the least of these. The one-week mission trip isn’t enough for you anymore.

We understand how you feel because God lead us all down similar paths. We are a team of passionate missionaries who’ve had our lives radically changed through sharing God’s love to the nations. Our desire is to train and mobilize young people who have experienced God’s love in their lives and who want to grow closer to Him by sharing it with the world.

I remember the first time I was able to see the light of hope in someone’s eyes as I shared through tears how much God loved them. It changed my life and I think that’s what you’re craving too.” Sam Kirby, Passport

We work with long-term established contacts around the world focused on providing valuable, sustainable ministry to uplift locals and spread the hope of Jesus wherever we go.

What to expect on your trip: 

1. Mission (Matthew 28:16-20)

Learn how to serve others the way Jesus served them. Learn how to share your story and share the hope of the gospel.

2. Intimacy (John 15)

Dive deeper with God. Understand who He is in your life.

3. Community (Acts 2)

Learn how to be the church! Go and practice real Biblical community with others just like you.

The ancient Incan civilization of Machu Picchu tells the history of the Peruvian people. Their traditions date back millennia, but Peru’s future is poised for change. 

Filled with jaw-dropping terrain, Peru is one of the most bio-diverse countries on Earth. Peru’s landscape includes the lofty peaks of the Andes, vast coastal deserts and the lush, tropical rainforests of the Amazon Basin. 

The birthplace of several proud, ancient civilizations, present-day Peru is home to an incredible assortment of indigenous groups that blend into a unique and beautiful culture.

Sadly, the people of Peru struggle with high levels of poverty and class inequality. Government corruption hinders Peru’s economic development and the people face many intractable problems such as teenage pregnancy, substance abuse and crime (particularly theft).

Difficult circumstances have created a strong hunger for hope.

Here’s what you could do on a Passport trip:

  • Plant churches
  • Share the gospel
  • Lead vacation Bible school
  • Facilitate sports ministry

So what are you waiting for? Grow in your faith. Learn to live as a modern day missionary. Learn who God is in your life. Understand the value of Biblical healthy community.

God is calling you to journey with Him, to share His love with the nations and establish His Kingdom on earth.

Passport was a time of stepping into the fullness of God’s love while experiencing his kingdom come on earth. I was able to meet people where they were at whether that was in a red light district in Thailand or a church service in Cambodia, Jesus showed up in every smile. – Jess Johnston (Passport Alum)
