Have you ever wanted to go on a mission trip? We have one scheduled for June 7-12, 2025. Casa Bernabé is located 45 minutes outside of Guatemala City. We are picked up at the airport by bus and delivered to the 13-acre walled-in campus they call home. We leave the campus infrequently. We will NOT be trolling around dangerous parts of Guatemala, and nobody will be out alone on our trip. The cost to go is the plane ticket (+/- $550 from MIA) plus $65 per night for room and board - accommodations on the grounds.
