Frequently Asked Questions
How do I sign up for a trip?
Once available for registration, each trip will have a link to register at the bottom of the trip details.
How much does a trip cost?
Once confirmed, the cost of the trip is shown in the trip details. For our church members, we offset the cost through our “First Fruits” offering. This varies depending on the total cost of the trip but begins at $300 off the trip cost.
What is covered in the trip cost?
The total trip cost includes airfare and/or ground transport to and from the airport. It also includes in-country transportation (unless traveling off-schedule), accommodation, meals, emergency medical, evacuation assistance, and visa fees if necessary.
The trip cost does not include passport costs, immunizations, medications, personal baggage charges, trip cancellation insurance, airfare add-ons, airport meals, snacks, souvenirs, etc.
Who can participate in a mission trip?
Adults can participate in any trip (note: we do require a background check as part of the application process). Minors can also participate on a case-by-case basis with at least one parent. In the summer we aim to have a trip designed for high school students where older students can sometimes participate without a parent.

BELIZE MEDICAL MISSION QUARTERLY TRIPS OVERVIEW
Cornerstone works in close partnership with Kidz Konnect 4 Jesus (KK4J) in the Stann Creek district of Belize. KK4J is a ministry founded through the support and guidance of Cornerstone. We currently support the Zittle family who are based in Silk Grass, Belize.
KK4J’s ministry consists of Christian education in Belizean schools, feeding programs, family ministry, discipleship, skill training, and medical clinics. Since 2011, Cornerstone has been sending quarterly medical teams to Belize under the direction of one of our elders, Dr. Ed Behling.
During these quarterly trips, medical professionals from Cornerstone and other KK4J partner churches provide much-needed medical care in the Stann Creek district of Belize. For many Belizeans in this district, the KK4J clinics serve as their primary non-emergency medical care. Hundreds of patients are seen during these clinics and we are able to have Gospel and discipleship conversations with many of them!
Accommodation and meals are all provided by KK4J during these trips and the team stays at Camp Legacy which is a private property operated by the organization.
Medical experience is not necessary to participate in these trips.
