Please note: All details are subject to
change at a moment's notice. Below is what is currently planned for your team,
but remember that God's plans for your trip always trump our plans.
Nauta, Peru is on the
banks of the Amazon River (actually a few miles before the rivers combine to
form the actual Amazon River). The
teams will be based out of Nauta, and will likely take a trip up the Ucayali
River to encourage and serve churches and river communities that don't get
reached very often. You will meet
up with Crystal, a long-term AIM missionary who will advise and train your team
in local customs. Teams should be prepared to teach church leaders, do
children's ministry, and follow the Holy Spirit in outreach & evangelism to
local churches!
Ministry: evangelism, preaching, VBS, service
projects
Lodging: sleeping on the floor
Food: local food provided for you by the ministry
Transportation: Bus, Motorcar, Boat
Laundry: by hand
Money: bring a debit card to take out local currency from ATMs. ATMs are only
located in Nauta and Iquitos. There are no ATMs located along the river.
Dress: The dress code on your profile should suffice. Women should
bring approximately 2 skirts to wear for church or special events.
Packing: Sleeping pad and mosquito nets are a
MUST. Hammock could be used some of the time but not always. Hammocks and
mosquito nets can be purchased in country.
Note: some craft projects for children's
ministry would be beneficial
