The benefits are eternal for those who are willing to get out of their comfort zones. As they are stretched they will likely experience significant spiritual growth while making an eternal investment in the people they are going to minister to. Short term teams can usually be of any size but most are from 3 to 15 people. We believe that a smaller team of 3 to 8 is usually best. The length of the trip is really up to you. If you are coming from the U.S. the flight will be for about 4 hours whether you’re flying out of Houston or Atlanta. There is no direct flight to Managua, Nicaragua from Dallas.

Your place of departure will depend on where you are from in the U.S. but we have found that flying United Airlines from Houston or Delta from Atlanta are the most common routes. Your trip through the air will look like this:

• Your hometown airport to Atlanta or Houston
• Atlanta or Houston to Managua, Nicaragua

You will be picked up by our driver at the Augusto C. Sandino International Airport in Managua, Nicaragua.

We prefer to let you purchase your own airfare. But we are willing to help you with that in any way we can. We have found that round trip tickets can cost anywhere from $700 to $2,000 per person. It usually depends on what time of the year you are flying and how far in advance you purchase the tickets Be sure and check out the Ministry Opportunities page and Activities page for a list of opportunities for you and your team to do while on your trip. We are all gifted and have ways we can bless others. And just because something is not on the list doesn’t mean it can’t be done. Just ask. We are willing to do “whatever it takes” to see lives changed and the Great Commission fulfilled.
