Teams/Mission Trips

Have you thought about serving the Lord through short term missions?  This is your chance to work with a group whose purpose is showing God’s love through hands-on ministry! The Guatemalan people are receptive to the Gospel and in desperate need for His love to be shown in practical ways.  This is an opportunity to impact the world for His glory and to experience a personal move of God as you submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit in your life!  Fe Viva World Missions has been taking teams into Guatemala and Central America since 1999 and we are inviting you, your church, business, or family to have the experience of a lifetime! We will be glad to assist you in planning your short term mission’s trip from beginning to end.  

​

Here are some of the ways in which a team can serve:

 

Education: 

Teach and train Guatemalans of all ages in both our Education Centre and Bible College by providing classes in the areas you excel.  Share your expertise in academic or artistic studies such as English, computer sciences, or art.  Provide skilled training in practical life skills like cooking and Food Safe courses, sewing, and even First Aid and CPR.  If you work in the trades, share your knowledge by teaching a course on plumbing or electrical.  If you are a teacher of the Word, there is opportunity to teach in our Bible College to eager students of scripture! 

​

Construction: 

From the very beginning various mission teams have helped in the construction of our Bible College, assisted in building and repairing homes for families, worked on structures for churches and children’s homes.  These teams have worked hard in many areas of construction and labour including land clearing, painting, and electrical and plumbing. Mission teams have made a lasting effect in the lives of Guatemalans and you can too.

​Evangelism: 

Evangelism is the heartbeat of Fe Viva World Missions.  We integrate it into all outreaches, programs and events.  While working within a team you can expect to travel door to door in nearby villages and visit families in their homes to share the Gospel, pray for needs, and give gifts.  Attention is always given to children’s ministry through fun-filled, child-focused services where the goal is to have the kids personally experience the love of Christ.  We invite people to attend special services where many find salvation and are healed of diseases. The team comes prepared to share at these services by performing dramas and skits, music, dance, and sharing personal testimonies. Our time is filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. Follow-up is always done by the local pastors who have invited us into their churches. They ensure ongoing discipleship for the new converts.

*Evangelistically-focused teams participate and minister in Crusades and their time is largely spent in this area of ministry

​

 

Medical/Dental Clinics:

These teams impact the community through their gift of medical and dental support. The need is great, as many people live in remote locations where medical and dental services are difficult to obtain.  By setting up clinics in areas that are easier to travel to and providing services for free, many Guatemalans receive much needed care that otherwise would be out of their reach.  Qualified medical personnel will work in short-term clinics in order to meet as many health needs as possible within the pre-set time frame.  As well as short term mission teams, trained health professionals work at a permanent, on-site general health clinic at the Fe Viva base.  This is a new addition to Fe Viva’s outreaches that we are blessed with the ability to provide.  

​

Children’s Ministry:

Children’s services for the surrounding community are held when teams come to Fe Viva. We share the love of Christ with the children as we provide the good news of Jesus. Get ready to have a great time filled with fun and laughter, because these services are a blast! We honour Christ as we minister to these little ones with lighthearted play and genuine care.  In this way, we ease the heaviness of burdens resting on these precious children.  By having services that are specific to the needs of children, we are showing them that our Lord cares for them deeply and they are not overlooked!  

​

Sports Clinics/Camps:

Sports are a natural way for people of different cultures and languages to connect.  Fe Viva facilitates these connections on teams by planning sports days where the team can play soccer with the local community on our full-sized soccer field.  If you are a gifted player or coach, use your giftings to teach those skills to the players, assist in soccer clinics/camps, and train up-and-coming athletes to achieve their personal best!  Soccer is a major part of life in Guatemala and time given to this pursuit is highly valued by the communities.  This is one more way that we can show the love of Christ to the nation of Guatemala.
