Come and Work!
We would love for you to join us here on campus! Come and work hand in hand with us, as we literally build these children’s futures!
We encourage you to visit Guatemala and work with LLI in what we are doing, up front and personal! You can come either with an existing volunteer team, bring your own team from your church or group of friends, visit with your family or even alone as an intern! Look at all the work that needs to be done! Check out some of the things you can get involved with on-site!
- Do physical labor! Lay block, pour concrete, lay tile, paint, landscape… whatever phase we are at there is always a place you can jump in and lend a hand! We will organize specific projects for your team while you are here. GET DIRTY!
- Plan Bible classes and activities with the local villagers. We do a type of VBS (although rarely actually during vacation time), where 200-400 local mothers come with their children. We teach them the love of Jesus, through Bible lessons, crafts, games, and other fun creative activities. You and your team can lead these activities for the week you are on site, and bring your touch to the local people!
- Organize a medical/dental outreach. The people in the surrounding villages are very very poor and most times just have to deal with any pain/toothaches, with no medical care or medicine. Any medicine or dental care you can bless them with is a huge huge blessing for them.
- Visit local homes and churches. Take your family and team to see what life is really like for 70% of Guatemalans. Make tortillas with the local woman, and make new friends! They really appreciate your visit to their home when you show them that you love them and care for them! Worship with local Christians at home and small village churches.

Work with our children at LLI. Teach them a craft, a skill set, a game. Teach them English. Love them, feed them. Serve them!
