El Salvador July 29 - August 6/2017, SR1316
This trip is now closed. Please check out our other opportunities at www.ghotrips.org.
We welcome physicians, dentists, pharmacists, optometrists, physican assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, first responders, dental hygienists, dental assistants, physical/occupation therapists, students, and logistics (non-medical helpers) on all of our general medicine and dentistry trips.
The team will be serving in La Union, El Salvador. It is a very urban town, still very poor. Our host church is Cimiento Estable under the leadership of dear brothers in Christ, Rene Mejia and Rene Gonzalez. All of our translators come from the wonderful Christian school, Oasis, that was started and is supported by Cimiento Estable. These are the most amazing young people and you will grow to love them!
This is a wonderful mission for young people and families. Typically, two thirds of the team members are under the age of 30, and one half under 26! These teams are fun, energetic and a blessing to serve on! So, if you want an "extraordinary adventure", I am offering you an "extraordinary invitation" to join me in this incredible experience! God will work in and through the team and you in ways you cannot imagine!
If you have questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us.
