Latin America
The Tegus Trek has been rerouted to Mexico City.
The Lima Trek has been rerouted to Mexico City.
 

Latin America Trek: Students going to cities in Latin America and Africa will travel to Mexico City and spend several days training at Orientation.  Here they will gain necessary cross-cultural skills and develop a theological foundation for entering into incarnational ministry.  Upon completing the training, students will travel to their Trek cities to live among and serve alongside the urban poor under the leadership of national ministry partners.  After spending 5 weeks in-country, teams will once again gather in Mexico City for Debriefing in order to process their experience and more importantly learn how to integrate and steward their experience into their future.

Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)
