In the end, God always provides in one way or another. Some are older, and others are very young. Everyone is united by the common cause of helping change the spiritual and social landscape of Bogot\u00e1, Colombia. Some members of our volunteer team even go on to start their own ministries in other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TEAMS:<\/strong> We welcome teams or small groups coming for periods ranging from 7 days to 2 weeks. Whether your focus is on children's ministry, construction and maintenance, or a combination of both, we can provide opportunities to serve across different areas of our ministry, as well as with other partner programs working with children at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We always have work to be done.
