Belmopan, Belize

 

In the foothills of the Maya Mountains, we are able to enjoy the history, people, wildlife and culture of Belize - once the center of the Mayan empire. Resting on a wide range of diverse cultural and linguistic traditions, Belize intertwines Chinese, Creole, East Indian, European, Lebanese, Mayan, Mennonite and Mestizo roots to define its own national heritage.

As a primarily English-speaking country, Belize is the perfect spot for our Sojourn Team members to connect with the children they serve at both Garden City Primary School and Marla’s House of Hope children’s home. These children come from disadvantaged as well as desperate situations, and are grateful for all we bring in terms of tangible supplies, time spent and care offered.
