Dates: June 20 – August 12
Serve the Lord this summer in Trinidad, the southern-most island of the West Indies in the Caribbean Sea, which has a unique and diverse culture unlike anywhere else. After training is completed at the Lord’s Boot Camp, you will bus to the Orlando International Airport for your flight to the capital city, Port of Spain, (via Miami). Here, your project with Triumphant Ministries will be to continue construction on the pastor’s house. You will have the opportunity to share Jesus through music, puppets and door-to-door evangelism. Housing will be in a building and showers are available. The team will enjoy spending their free time with the friendly locals who know the meaning of hospitality. Take a trip to Port of Spain where you can see the British colonial buildings of Queens Park Savannah, or do some shopping on Fredrick Street. You will swim in the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean at Maracus Bay and sample the famous Bake n’ Shark sandwiches of Trinidad. A visit to the Caroni Bird Sanctuary is planned; here you may see thousands of scarlet ibis, the national bird of Trinidad. Shopping for souvenirs may include colorful t-shirts, beaded jewelry, and steel drums.
Estimated Project Expense: $3190 U.S. plus $30 Registration Fee

Hi Beth,
I second Kimberly’s sentiments at your patience! I have been looking everywhere trying to find out where to send mail. Can you please give us an address and also, when they travel to Trinidad, do we use the same address?
Thanks so much!

Thanks for the info. The updates will all be under ‘Mission’s Reports’ even if there is no picture?

Dear Beth,
You are very patient with your answers, my hat goes off to you! My daughter, Abby, is on the Trinidad team and I was wondering if there will be pictures and updates on this website from time to time. Knowing they don’t have access to the internet I hoped that someone would post a little of what they are experiencing. It’s such a different world than when I went in 1983, to Liberia, no such thing as instant messaging. I totally understand if this will not be happening but thought it may as I see a few postings from some of the other team.
Blessings, Kimberly Wahl

Ms. Wahl, Yes, the leaders will be sending in reports twice weekly which will be posted on our web site. They will also send in pictures periodically if they are able.

I’ve been having trouble finding a bible case if I don’t get one in time will I be able to purchase one at the boot camp store? Any idea who my leaders will be or do I have to wait and see? Just 10 days, i’m praying for you guys.

Lila, Yes, you may purchase one at Boot Camp. We do not give out the names of the leaders as it can change.

I know we need insect repellent for Boot Camp – do we need a lot for Trinidad also?

Christian, Yes, you will need it for Trinidad, but don’t bring aerosol cans as you can’t fly with those.
