Ministry Description
Summary
The camp property is used for summer camps and by public schools for activities and retreats. The youth come, have fun and hear the gospel. This is what changes lives! WOL El Salvador is reaching 1,000's of youth per year and continue to improve the property to better serve the needs.
Strategy
Summer staff housing is needed for leaders who attend camp to help for the camping season. The dorms are filled with campers but they are out of room for more guests. This new building is so very important to the expansion of the ministry. You will experience a day of evangelism in a local town, visit the coastal fish market and the capital San Salvador.
Travel
You'll fly into San Salvador International Airport which is just 15 minutes from the WOL camp property. The trip takes about 3.5 hours from Houston or Dallas.
Housing

Transportation
The airport is along the coast and the roads to the camp are in excellent condition and flat. It's about a 15 minute bus ride to the camp. San Salvador is about 45 minutes away.
Food
The staff prepare the meals and you'll eat really well. You'll enjoy the national foods and special cookout that Marcelo prepares just for you. You'll love his Chimichurri! You're not sure what this is? Join the trip for a taste of Argentine flavor.
