What's Included

Overview

Maranatha offers at least two family projects each year that provide service opportunities for every member of your family, both young and old. This year, spend part of your summer break in Peru!

Maranatha worked all throughout Peru in the early 2000’s. The churches and schools that were completed have since blossomed and created a need for even more urgently-needed church and school buildings. Local church leadership have requested assistance once again, and Maranatha is gladly responding to this call.

Volunteers on this project will build the La Selva Adventist church in Pucallpa, Peru. The group will also complete block walls for the Sabbath School classrooms at the Villa Jesus church. In addition, volunteers will conduct community outreach including children’s ministry and medical work or a health education program, depending on the skills volunteers are bringing to this project. A special day camp will be offered for children 12 and under which will give younger volunteers a unique opportunity to learn more about life in Peru while also helping in all the other aspects of the mission trip as well.

At some point through the project, there will be an excursion to one of the tourist attractions in Peru.
