Trip Information

Servant Life partners with a unique ministry in Nicaragua serving the greater community around Ocotal. Building relationships and pointing people to Christ is our partner’s most valuable ministry. Using a CrossFit gym/church as their ministry base, our partner is able to serve the community through exercise, Bible studies, church services, and more.
 

What will my team be doing? 

Teams join our missionaries serving through a gym in Ocotal to reach the community. You don’t have to be a CrossFit athlete to serve! Our missionaries will help you hop in and have a great time building relationships and serving. Outside of the gym, your group will engage in a variety of ministry opportunities each day. The gym is a catalyst for our partners to build trust in the community. You can participate in different evangelism outreach events, discipleship training, light construction, home visits to the surrounding community, and more. High school and college sports teams will especially love this mission opportunity!
