Locations & Times
Guatemala - ENLACE
March 15 - March 21, 2025
This team will have the opportunity to serve alongside a local church in Guatemala that is providing a clean water source for their community. Families in this community are in dire need of clean water. They currently lack enough water to carry out their basic personal activities, such as bathing, cleaning their houses, washing clothes, and cooking. The lack of clean and running water has also affected the ability of the local Health Center to provide care to the community’s residents. During this trip, you will help support the construction of a water well, as well as have the opportunity to connect with community members, participate in prayer walks and attend the local church. Max team size is 15.
This trip is currently full! Please let the Timberline Missions Office know if you'd like to be added to the waitlist. The remaining open trips are listed on our website :)

WHY SHORT-TERM TEAMS?: Team are designed to help meet the physical and spiritual needs of our missionary partners and the communities in which they serve. We believe that command of Christ to go into all the world has not changed but we are certainly aware and respect the many challenges that exist nationally and globally. We will absolutely do our best to take all the necessary precautions and work with our missionary hosts to adjust to the local guidelines but where there are needs and requests from our missionary partners and hosts, we want to provide an opportunity for those who are willing and able to go and help meet the needs.
