San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala
Trip Destination: San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala
Trip Dates: January 9-16
Participating organizations: San Lucas Tomilan Mission
Our group will live and work with the
San LucasTolimán Mission, a Catholic parish that sponsors many community outreach and development programs on the southeastern shores of Lake Atitlán. Members of this community are largely indigenous Mayans, and this trip is an opportunity for LMU students to learn about the Mayan culture in contemporary Guatemala.
The service component of the trip may include working with the parish’s agricultural projects, reforestation program, health clinic, or school. Group accommodations are in a large guest house with common bedrooms. Meals are taken in the parish hall.
