Meatballs for Missions


So this Sunday (November 27) is meatballs for missions. If you don't know what that is; every year the CLBI impact teams host a fundraising event. The money raised goes towards whichever teams need it. It is hosted at CLBI and will be a lot of fun. We hope to see you there!

For more information on the our missions visit here.


Fun Fact: Ecuador has three major geographical regions: the Costa (the coast), the Sierra (the highlands) and el oriente (the amazon).

Buenos Dias!


Hola! Welcome to the blog of impact team Ecuador, we are are group of students from CLBI. Doing a cross cultural missions experience. Our trip will actually happen this January from the 3rd to the 25th.
We are actually two impact teams going to the same place, so you will see posts from both teams. The first team consists of Sted Christenson, Rylee Evans, Natasha Schlein, and Jenna Tysdal, and the other team consist of Katie Tompkins, Amanda Van Horn, Feyan Mellsen, and Rosalee Rohde.

We are traveling to Quito Ecuador and visiting the surrounding areas; including some jungle cities of the Amazon.

Fun fact: Ecuador translates from Spanish into equator, because it is right on the equator.

Stick around because we will try and keep you posted on what is happening.
