What does VIDA look like?
Your discipleship experience will include three months of intensive discipleship in Guatemala, followed by nine months of monthly online mentorship back home.
While in Guatemala, you will
- deepen your relationship with Christ through weekly rhythms and systematic & intensive Bible reading
- explore your strengths, abilities and calling through a variety of assessment tools such as spiritual gift surveys & personality tests
- learn Spanish to better communicate with those around you
- experience the power of worship in local churches and schools
- practice and apply lessons learned by engaging in local churches, serving in Vida Schools, and participating in outreach opportunities in the local community
Life in a developing country in a developing program is nothing less than unpredictable! You will have ample opportunity to test God amidst the challenges of real life and discover firsthand that He is ALWAYS enough!

- continue your intentional discipleship journey via monthly online meetings
- participate in continued mentorship with your mentors
