Panama - Mission Trip to Panama

Trip Details:

Sender:	Global Expeditions
Title:	Panama
Description:	Deep in the Darien jungle and San Blas islands dwell remote indigenous tribes who carve small idols out of wood for their worship and rely on village chiefs to interpret the meaning of their sacred chants. We dare you to journey here and take on the life of a hardcore missionary by going without electricity or indoor plumbing. Stay in a straw hut, sleep in a hammock, and win the hearts of the people by helping with daily survival tasks like fishing and farming. Exchange culture as you practice English in makeshift schools, teach Bible studies, play with their children, and show them what it means to have faith in Christ! Your presence will support local pastors in these isolated areas and help develop new believers and tiny thatch-roofed churches. As you become part of tribal life, we guarantee you’ll fall in love with Panama! http://www.globalexpeditions.com/mission-trips/summer-trips/latin-america/panama/
