Student Mission Opportunity – Summer in Peru
Posted by Geoff Baggett in Uncategorized
REAP North Peru, the IMB team that equips and matches North American churches as Church Planting Strategist Churches for unreached people groups in northern Peru, has an awesome Summer Internship program for students who have completed at least their senior year in high school. This summer they have twenty spots available for students to go to Peru, receive training, and serve in a remote location. Indeed, after their first week of training, students will be deployed in teams of two or three to an Andean mountain village for thirty days. They will have to stretch their “intermediate Spanish skills,” form relationships with people, and seek out opportunities to share the Gospel and assist local churches.
The culmination of their 45-day internship experience is a week-long ministry trip to the jungles of the Amazon basin.
The cost of this internship is $1,200 for in-country expenses, airfare to and from Lima, and insurance. Currently, there are nine positions still open. I am excited that one of our students, a high school senior named Kegan Davis, has already been accepted for the internship and is eagerly looking forward to his summer missions experience.
For more information, check out the IMB page for Project #88114. The page contains a link to the application (which is several pages and rather lengthy … be prepared to help your students through the process). For more information about REAP North, visit their web site.
Students who complete the internship have the option of returning next year and serving as a summer / semester missionary with the people group of their choice. We are already considering deploying Kegan for several months among our people group, the Panao Quechua.
