Teen Trip ages: 13-19
Majestic mountains, active volcanoes, beautiful waterfalls, geysers, and black sand beaches all offer a stunning picture of Iceland—“the land of fire and ice”. Be prepared to serve on one of the most spectacular islands in the world with 20 hours of daylight every day! Experience God’s beautiful creation while you partner with Kirkulaekjarkot, a Christian conference center ministry dedicated to proclaiming Christ to the people of Iceland.
Ministry: The first weekend in August is Kirkulaekjarkot’s annual Family Camp and although you will miss being there for the actual program, you will help to prepare for it. Your project will be to continue renovation projects, landscaping, and painting buildings.
Travel: Following your two weeks of training at the Lord’s Boot Camp, you will bus to the Orlando International Airport and board a flight to Minneapolis, Minnesota, before arriving in Reykjavik, home of the northernmost capital of the world. You will then bus two hours to Hvollsvollur, where the Christian conference center, Kirkulaekjarkot, is located.
Adventure: Enjoy hiking in the nearby areas of mountains and streams. Have your camera ready to capture the beautiful and diverse scenery of waterfalls, mountains, rugged cliffs, rushing rivers, glaciers, and lots of sheep. In addition, there will be an opportunity to shop for various souvenirs, such as beautiful woolen sweaters, tee-shirts and various Icelandic trinkets.
Project Expense: $4290 U.S. plus $30 Registration Fee
