An adventure awaits you in Peru!

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 rain forests 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.
Peruvians—especially those living in poverty—are amazingly open and responsive to the gospel. God is powerfully at work in this South American country.
Ministry:
While in Peru, you will serve in Inquitos, “the capital of the Peruvian Jungle”. You’ll likely boat down the river or hike jungle trails to remote villages, sharing the Gospel with everyone you meet. This will look mostly like:
- Kids Ministry: From VBS to sports camps, you’ll be
able to share the love of Jesus in kids’ favorite language: fun. - Community Outreach: Through relational ministry, you’ll encourage families and tired mothers, play football (soccer) with local teens, and laugh with the youth.
Whatever you do, bring them hope in God’s plans for their future.
Will you join us in Peru?
