Spanish Language Adventure in Florida

Day 1

Your group will arrive in Miami and meet your Joshua Expeditions guide, then transfer to a hotel near your mission site. Following a time for orientation and group prayer, you will begin preparing for the Spanish language immersion program. Your first service project will take place in the afternoon at a nearby school for children of migrant workers. Following this rewarding introduction, your group will close the day with devotions at the hotel.

Day 2

This morning your group will return to the school to conduct English/Spanish classes using a simple curriculum that will be given to you. You will be working with children from families who have been transplanted from Mexico and Honduras to work as seasonal laborers. Statistically, these children have the highest dropout rate among all children in the nation, and they often fall victim to drugs and crime. You will tailor your specific gifts to teach purpose to these young children, and you will find yourself just as blessed as them while you interact throughout the morning. During the afternoon, your group will head out to a gator farm for an adventure you will not soon forget, and then you will spend some time at an after-school program to interact with students in a casual setting. The evening will close with dinner and a time for group devotions.

Day 3

Following breakfast, your group will head back to the school for one last morning of language instruction. Your interaction with the students will be a blessing to all. Your group will say goodbye to the students at lunchtime, then set out for home after a quick meal.
