Gesu's Mission in Honduras
Summer Immersion Trips to Honduras Coordinated by Church of the Gesu
Through the experience of an immersion trip, participants make significant contributions to the many needs of the Honduran people. Participants engage in construction projects and hands-on community service while building meaningful relationships with the people of Honduras and their fellow participants. The trip expands one’s view of the Creator, the great need in the world, and the relative unimportance of “things” in our lives. The Immersion Trip is a “reverse mission” where we learn some of life’s most important lessons from the poorest of the poor.
