Short-Term Mission Trips

In Country Mission Trips Return!

Begining October 1, 2021

YES, we are currently scheduling mission teams to come and serve with us in Guatemala. Starting October 1st, teams will be allowed to enter Guatemala with some precautionary guidelines:

You will be required to have a negative COVID test one week before your team is scheduled to arrive in Guatemala.
You will be required to receive a test with a negative result during your week in Guatemala in order to enter the airport to return home to the US.
At least for the remainder of 2021, we will ONLY be conducting construction project trips. These trips will focus on either working on construction projects at our new Child Beyond property or building homes and cookstoves for pre-screened families.

There will be NO visitations to the Children's Home during this period or until COVID restrictions are lifted. We are so excited to have everyone come back and serve shoulder-to-shoulder with us in bringing the Love of Jesus Christ to the hurting people of Guatemala!

Child Beyond is located near San Cristobal, Guatemala. Missions teams typically fly into Guatemala City and travel to San Cristobal where they stay at the Child Beyond International Team housing center. Teams work with villages in the rural areas surrounding the city.

You'll work as a team to build homes, build cooking stoves, install water filters, and share God’s love with children and families. You’ll complete projects that advance our work at the children’s home. You’ll have some time for sightseeing and shopping. But most of all, this trip is focused on reaching beyond yourself to others, with Jesus’ love and grace.

Most trips are about 7-10 days.

Mission trip cost varies, but most are between $800-$1000 (Not including round-trip airfare)

This includes all of the following:

Lodging in a comfortable, secure mission team housing center
All daily transportation, including airport pickup and drop off
Local project manager, translator and equipment for all projects
Daily breakfast, lunch and dinner
A donation to help with the loving care of our orphans at God’s Grace Children’s Home
One day touring Antigua, the famous Spanish colonial city or another tourist destination.
