Panama Holiday - Mission Trip to Panama

Trip Details:

Sender:	Global Expeditions
Title:	Panama Holiday
Description:	The Reality Deep in the Darien jungle, remote tribes live in straw huts, wash their clothes in rivers, and live off the land for food. Removed from industry and technology, kids play soccer in the muddy fields without shoes while the women sit in circles doing bead work and share news of the day in Spanish and Kuna. Life here is about community. History is still handed down through stories around kitchen fires. Instead of turning to God in times of grief and tragedy, the Panamanians trust small, carved images. They believe their idols are their hope and salvation, but their prayers continue to be fruitless in their lonely, empty struggle. The Challenge This holiday, we dare you to join the Panamanian mission’s team and go on the adventure of a lifetime! Stay in a straw hut, sleep in a hammock, and win the hearts of these villagers by helping with daily survival tasks. Go without electricity or indoor plumbing. Be a part of their world as you practice English in makeshift schools, teach Bible studies, play with the children and introduce them to the One, True and Mighty God. http://www.globalexpeditions.com/mission-trips/holiday-trips/teachpanama/
