Really Living Centre is pleased to announce that after a three-year-long hiatus we are returning to the mission field. In October 2024 we will be heading to the country of Peru to improve the lives of indigenous communities in the Andes mountains.
Covid-19 impacted the lives of everyone around the globe – especially our already vulnerable communities. This mission trip was originally planned for 2020, but unfortunately the pandemic derailed our plans. But how fortunate we are to now be able to head to Peru to show the kindness and compassion of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
The focus of this trip will be to construct warm homes for the community. Villages in the Andes of Peru can be located 14,000 feet above sea level with temperatures plummeting to -21 degrees celsius. The difficult terrain, poor air quality and freezing temperatures make the Andes a harsh habitat to live in. However, many indigenous peoples call this home and have been in these locations for generations.
We will be working on the homes to create a warm and safe environment for families to live in. These fixes will include: solar panel for electric lighting, wooden floors, stove upgrades with metal chimney’s for proper venting. We will also be installing new bathrooms. These changes will ensure homes are fresh, clean and warm!
