Review for Mission Guatemala Inc, Indianapolis, IN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My trip to Guatemala was pretty incredible. The beauty of the country side and the mayan people were genuine, kind and caring. It was a great experience in terms of culture and personal growth. We worked hard and accomplished a lot in a short week; but just as important was the opportunity to work along side the people from the village- working towards a common goal. Our translators were right there with us sharing their stories and helping us communicate with the village children and adults- that personal bond that took place over the week of working together set the stage for my cultural experience and personal growth. The people in the village face so many challenges but they continued to work hard and maintain a positive attitude and high level of appreciation. Mission Guatemala with Tom Heaton and his team were a great host to us. They had a balanced schedule and provided us all of the basics of what we needed. I personally recommend this trip to everyone who wants to try to help a group of people in continuing to improve the lives of the village. It also provides an opportunity to personally grow and experience another culture and country. I thank Tom and his team for a wonderful time and experience
