San Andres Island, Columbia— South America
Dates: June 16 – August 3, 2018
Teen Missions Trip (ages 13-19)
Work & Evangelism Team
Help renovate the only youth camp on San Andres Island, the largest of the Colombian islands in the Caribbean Sea, located off the coast of Nicaragua.
Travel: After your training at the Lord’s Boot Camp, you bus to the Orlando International Airport and board a flight across the Straits of Florida, Cuba and the Caribbean Sea to Bogota, Colombia. A connecting flight takes you to the Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport. From the airport it is a short drive to the camp.
Ministry: Your project is to help renovate the camp buildings that have not been used for 25 years. The fact that you are giving a summer to work at the camp will allow other children to be able to enjoy the camp’s facilities in the future.
Adventure: While on San Andres you will have the opportunity to visit Old Point Regional Mangrove Park, a wildlife sanctuary with fiddler crabs, iguanas and birds. You will take a boat trip out to the Johnny Cay Park, a coral island that has one of the best beaches in the archipelago, where you will spend your day with over 500 iguanas! Shop for souvenirs such as hammocks, blankets, jewelry and paintings.
Project Expense: $3090 U.S. plus $30 Registration Fee
