Belize Mission Trip 2025:

A Journey of Faith, Service, and Transformation

This summer, Chapelle and Rummel missionaries returned from their unforgettable journey to Belize! The group arrived home bursting with joy and the Holy Spirit—quite literally singing “This Little Light of Mine” as they exited the airport and reunited with their families. Their hearts were full, and their spirits on fire after a week of transformative service and Christ-centered community.

This mission trip was more than a week of travel—it was a week of living out the Gospel. Our students not only served others but encountered Christ in new and profound ways. Through simple yet powerful moments—playing with children, sharing meals, praying together—they saw the light of Christ alive in the village of San Marcos, and in turn, allowed their own lights to shine.

Junior, Audrey Dubuc, reflected on her experience, sharing:

“Attending the Belize mission has truly been a fulfilling and life changing experience! The mission has shown me how powerful God’s love can be. In just one week I was able to see the light of Christ active in everyone I encountered. Being able to witness his healing done on this mission trip was so inspiring, and has shown how beautiful His love is. Specifically through the children of Belize, their pure joy was a true reflection of Jesus active in their lives. While serving their community, I got the opportunity to see God’s light shining through them. It brought me so much joy to see how, while we may live different lives, we are all still a part of the one Church and share in God’s love.”

Our students took Christ’s words from Matthew 28:19-20 to heart:

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

And they did just that. By answering His call and stepping into this mission, they not only brought faith, hope, and love to the people of San Marcos, but also encountered Christ in deeper, more personal ways.

This mission marked our fourth year serving the San Marcos community, and we are beginning to witness real, lasting change. Through your support, our missionaries are not only growing spiritually, but helping to build something beautiful and lasting in Belize. The seeds planted over the years are bearing fruit, both in the hearts of our students and in the lives of the people they serve.

We are overwhelmed with gratitude to everyone who made this mission trip possible—thank you for your prayers, donations, and support. You have played a vital role in making this journey one that our students will carry with them forever.

We leave you with the words of Psalm 105:1-5, which beautifully capture the spirit of this mission:

“Give thanks to the LORD, invoke his name;
make known among the peoples his deeds!
Sing praise to him, play music;
proclaim all his wondrous deeds!
Glory in his holy name;
let hearts that seek the LORD rejoice!
Seek out the LORD and his might;
constantly seek his face.
Recall the wondrous deeds he has done!”
