What the Mission Trip Will Be Like
Meet the People of Saposoa!
Location and Landscape: Saposoa is a remote, tropical town in northern Peru’s San Martín Region, nestled along the Saposoa River deep within the Amazon rainforest.
Spiritual Environment: While culturally Catholic, many residents blend Christian beliefs with traditional indigenous practices. There is a profound need for evangelical outreach and deep, Bible-based discipleship.
Daily Challenges: Geographic isolation, widespread poverty, and a lack of access to quality education create significant barriers to both the physical and spiritual well-being of the local youth and families.
Our Mission: We partner directly with local believers to plant and strengthen Gospel-centered churches, breaking through isolation to bring long-term hope, encouragement, and the love of Christ to the community.
Service Opportunities
-
Medical Clinics: Assist with initiatives that meet immediate physical needs, including setting up temporary medical clinics, dispensing reading glasses, and providing health education.
-
Construction Projects: Assist with hands-on building efforts based on current local needs. This may involve infrastructure projects in a nearby village, development for the Jogo Bonito ministry, or miscellaneous building and repair work throughout the community.
-
Church Outreach and Evangelism: Team members will participate in church services, community outreach, personal testimonies, prayer ministry, home visits, and Gospel presentations.
-
Community Ministry
The team will serve families and children from Saposoa and surrounding communities through practical acts of service, encouragement, prayer, and relationship-building. -
Children and Youth Ministry
The team will have opportunities to serve children and young people through Bible lessons, games, crafts, sports, music, and other activities. Sports ministry may be included depending on the location and schedule.
"Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." – Matthew 5:16

Relation of Opportunity to National Church and/or Long-term Goals
Operating in an isolated region heavily impacted by poverty, our partners, Juan and Keyla provide a Christ-centered sanctuary through their sports ministry called Jogo Bonito, “the Beautiful Game.” Through Jogo Bonito, they offer deep biblical mentorship and a safe community to protect vulnerable youth from local drug cartels, guiding them toward a future built on faith and character.
