Summer Spanish Language School & Outreach
Guatemala is a great place to learn Spanish whether you are at the beginner or intermediate level. YWAM Antigua will be conducting a special 4 week program that will include Spanish language learning, discipleship training and outreach activities.
The first three weeks focus on learning Spanish from an experienced teacher as well as receiving discipleship training classes on: Intimacy with God; Intercession; Relationships; Evangelism; Spiritual warfare; World Missions.
