OVERVIEW

Join us as we travel to Guatemala and partner with Constru Casa to help build a home for a family in need.
​
We'll arrive into Guatemala City on a Friday and golfers enjoy a round of Purpose Driven Golf on Saturday.  Any non-golfers will go on a cultural experience in Guatemala City and we'll connect back up for dinner that evening.  During these first few days, we'll get to know one another better, play golf together, experience Guatemala together, and enjoy some great conversations... all purposefully designed to prepare our hearts and minds to serve alongside the Constru Casa team.  

On Sunday, after breakfast, we'll transfer to Antiqua where we'll settle into our hotel for remainder of the week and begin preparations for our building project over the next several days.  We'll have three build days and a cultural day visit to San Miguel Coffees - one of the most beautiful coffee farms in the world and part of Thrive Farmers Coffee network of coffee farms!  The final day is a celebration ceremony with the family receiving the home, the masons and other volunteers.  We'll depart on Friday morning back to Guatemala City.
