This trip is open to anyone wanting to join a short-term mission team to Ecuador.

As part of this trip, you will have the opportunity to partner with Kids Around The World’s indigenous staff in Ecuador and be the “hands and feet” of Jesus that love, care and provide for his children - whether it is by giving kids the gift of play with a beautiful playground, providing nutritious meals, or sharing God’s story of His love for them.

Part of this week will be dedicated to building a playground and when it is all complete, we will have a huge celebration to dedicate it to the kids in the community. The team will also spend time in the communities, building relationships, sharing the good news through KidStory and enjoying the beautiful culture of Ecuador.
