Skip the Package, Take a Pilgrimage!

Hundreds of thousands flock to the Caribbean each year seeking sun, sand, and sea. Few tourists these days end up coming to Haiti, though. Beyond Borders invites you avoid the package tours and the make-believe world they create behind resort walls. Come discover the hidden spiritual riches of Haiti and her people. Come meet people who live on the other side of the global economic divide and let them show you the world as they see it through their eyes. The world will never look the same to you again. Others return home with only a tan to show. You will return home radically transformed.

Beyond Borders offers a unique experience that is also very different from the many work teams and short-term mission groups that frequent Haiti. We believe that the best gift you can bring Haiti’s people is a desire to listen, learn, and be changed. The real work will begin once you return home.

During part of your stay in Haiti, you will be hosted by typical Haitian families in their homes, usually with no electricity or running water. Even without these conveniences you will encounter a level of hospitality that surpasses anything that even the finest hotels offer.

You will be assigned a translator who will not only help you build authentic relationships with people in the community you visit, but who will help you make sense of the new cultural realities that surround you. He/she will also guide you in making your visit a safe and healthy experience.
