• Experience the culture and enjoy local sightseeing

Trip cost will cover meals, ground transportation, lodging and sightseeing. Airfare is not included in the trip price. We know many of you are very busy and can't afford much time away from home and work, so these five-day trips are designed to see a lot in a short amount of time.

Transformation Trips - General Information

As part of our relational ministry, donors are encouraged to visit a water project. Seeing the needs, connecting with the community, taking a hands-on approach to serving and experiencing the transformation that Healing Waters International can bring is a life-changing opportunity. 

In addition to visiting Healing Waters International projects, trips provide an opportunity to experience the natural beauty and people of the countries. Here are things you can expect to experience on a Transformation Trip:

• Participate in a volunteer project 
• Visit water system and learn about the work of Healing Waters
• Talk to pastors and community members Our ministry partners share about the impact of their water projects on the community
• Visitors enjoy a meal in the home of a family that receives water from Healing Waters International, learning about challenges in their lives and conditions in which they live
• Local staff share about serving the community
• Visitors learn about the culture and history of the country

Trips are coordinated through Healing Waters International and are designed to see a lot in a short amount of time, usually five days including travel time.   Generally cost is approximately $600 including all meals, hotel and ground travel but not including airfare.  We plan for six trips a year and send from one to four Healing Waters International headquarters staff on each trip.  Our in-country staff is your host during your stay.
