Join us for this unique mission opportunity where you will be a part of a cross-cultural trekking team traveling by foot through the remotest and most beautiful, unreached areas of the country. The team will visit churches and families when trekking to different villages and will reach out to youth and children through evangelistic programs.

The team will embark upon an exciting journey of traveling from village to village, walking up to 15 km between up to 6 different villages, sleeping in tents and believer's homes, encouraging small groups of believers, and partnering with local churches. You will have the opportunity to organize kids' programs, youth outreaches, visiting families and elderly in their homes, and possibilities for helping practically where needed in every village visited.

Are you adventurous, flexible and willing to be stretched physically and spiritually? Do you want to be challenged in your faith and experience God in a new way through cross-cultural ministry? Do you have a passion to reach the lost by sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Come and join our Trekking Outreach!

Our purpose is to share God’s love with people. We want to equip, train and challenge Jesus followers to reflect Him and to use their God given gifts. As a result, we share hope with the people we meet along the way, investing in them and building bridges. We also hope that all participants will go away strengthened in their faith and with a deeper desire to share their faith cross-culturally.
The Way of St. James (El Camino de Santiago in Spanish) is a world renowned pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. Every year, thousands of people from all over the world come to Spain for this hike. It is also considered to be one of the most open areas in Europe to share the gospel, as most pilgrims are more open to listen, discuss and reflect while on the Camino. The purpose of this outreach is for you to share your testimony and the gospel with other people walking the Camino.
