I’m excited to share an opportunity God has placed before us. Educators on Mission will be traveling on a mission trip to Chilca, Peru, where we will be serving alongside the ministry of Esperanza de Ana.

Esperanza de Ana is a Christ-centered ministry dedicated to sharing the love of Jesus with children and families in Peru. Their work focuses on strengthening families, supporting children who have experienced hardship or trauma, and building relationships that lead people toward Christ. Through education, discipleship, and community outreach, the ministry provides a place of healing and hope for vulnerable children and their families.

During this mission trip, our team will partner with the local staff and community in several ways. We will participate in service projects, work alongside the Peruvian people in classrooms and ministry activities, and worship and pray together with the local missionaries and church community. The goal is to encourage local families while helping further the ministry’s mission of sharing Christ’s love in practical ways.
