Wayumi Expedition for 9th–12th grade

WANT TO OPEN YOUR STUDENTS’ EYES to missions without leaving the USA? Wayumi Expedition is a summer camp and a summer missions trip, all rolled into one. Your students will discover how they can be a part of reaching isolated people groups who have never heard the Gospel.

Who is invited?

Expedition is designed for students in 9th – 12th grade. Students come as a Youth Group along with your youth leaders/helpers, who serve as chaperones. Our staff takes care of all sessions and activities, which frees your leaders up to spend time with your students. Wayumi Expedition is designed for 40 to 60 youths, so if your group is smaller, you will be attending with other youth groups.

How much does Expedition cost?

Wayumi Expedition is $199 per person. This covers all expenses. Students may want to bring extra cash for the snack shop and bookstore.

What’s a typical day look like?

A typical day at Wayumi Expedition begins with devotions and sessions on tribal missions. The students will learn about language, culture, Bible translation and evangelism from veteran missionaries. Afternoons are dedicated to games and competitions which mesh with the things they learned in the morning. Of course, there's tons of time for swimming, games and other activities. Evenings are spent around the campfire singing and hearing the Word of God.

When should we arrive and depart?

Your youth group should plan to arrive between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. on Sunday. Wayumi Expedition begins with Sunday supper at 6 p.m. and ends after breakfast on Friday. Please plan your travel around those times.

Where do we sleep?

Your group will stay in "Jungle Camp" -- a woodland setting in rustic cabins. You will be sleeping in South American hammocks. And you’ll want to bring a sleeping bag because of the cool nights.

Bookstore and snack shop:

If your students have extra money, they can use it in our bookstore and at the snack shop. In the bookstore, there is Wayumi memorabilia like T-shirts, sweatshirts, and mugs along with many books on missions. We are not set up to take credit cards.
