2027 Family Vision TripS
Guatemala
July 6–13, 2027
Panama
June 22–29, 2027
A SportQuest Family Vision Trip is more than a mission trip—it’s a transformative experience designed to equip your family to live as a Kingdom Outpost. Together, you’ll serve alongside our local SportQuest Partners, who lead and sustain ongoing ministry in their communities. This partnership ensures lasting impact and meaningful relationships long after the short-term team returns home.
Throughout the week, your family will engage in hands-on serving, sports ministry, and community projects, while also participating in an immersive Kingdom Outpost training experience. Daily family devotionals will center around the Four Pillars of the Kingdom Outpost, helping you grow in what it means to be a multigenerational family team on mission.
Intentional times will also be set aside for couples and families to reflect on their shared vision, mission, and values, discerning how God is calling your family to live out His purposes at home and beyond.
Limited to just 6 families, each trip offers a unique blend of adventure, service, spiritual growth, and family formation while experiencing the beauty and wonder of a new culture. Step out in faith together and discover how your family can be a Kingdom Outpost—wherever God sends you.
Trip Highlights
Get ready for a week packed with purpose and fun! Here's what you can expect:
- Connect Through Sports and Games: Use sports ministry to build relationships with Guatemalan kids and families, sharing the love of Christ in engaging, joyful ways.
- Hands-On Service Projects: Partner with local families and local churches to serve practical needs such as painting, minor repairs, or providing life-changing resources for indigenous families such as cooking stoves or water filters.
- Family Worship and Service: Serve, play, and worship side-by-side as a family, fostering unity and shared purpose.
- Family Vision Reflection: Dive into guided discussions and activities to reflect on your family's unique vision, mission, and values.
- Special Family Experiences: Enjoy a special Shabbat dinner and explore new rhythms that could inspire positive changes in your home life.
- Daily Devotionals and Discussions: Lead devotionals within your family and join meaningful conversations with other participating families.
- Cultural Immersion and Exploration: In Guatemala, explore the lush beauty of the highlands, see volcanoes, and wander the charming streets of beautiful Antigua. In Panama, take in its stunning coastal beauty, marvel at the engineering wonder of the Panama Canal, and soak in the warm tropical climate and lush rainforest surroundings. In both countries, your family will immerse yourselves in a rich and vibrant culture.
This trip isn't just about serving others—it's about growing closer as a family and discovering how God can use you collectively.
