Guatemala and its partners serve with various organizations
and ministries of the church throughout the country. Placements
include community based projects and agencies, formal and non-formal
education, women’s programs and projects, and programs of
indigenous Mayan groups. Particular emphasis is given to entering
into close community with the people with whom the volunteer works.
A particular focus of the program will include an exploration
of the volunteer’s developing spirituality in the context
of the rich heritage native to Guatemala. College degree or equivalent
experience required. Program designed for young adults ages 21
and older.
