Bilingual Immersion Week/
Semana de Inmersión Bilingue

DETAILS

WHAT: Teach English to Uruguayan students through games and activities in a 3-day "Young Life-style" camp. Immerse yourself in the Uruguayan culture and Spanish language as you work on projects to improve and prepare the campsite, as well as visiting the local town of Colonia.

WHO: Adults, Middle/High School and College Students

WHEN: March 12-19, 2024 (you must arrive to Montevideo on the 12th and depart on the 19th)

WHERE: Ebenezer – a spiritual retreat home located on the Rio de la Plata. This place is designed for anyone who is in need of rest and rejuvenation. Ebenezer offers a time of not only relaxation, but spiritual support. It also provides a time of reflection based on its meaning in I Samuel 7:12 "Thus far the Lord has helped us." Ebenezer provides its guests the opportunity to leave the daily grind and then return to daily life with greater enthusiasm to live out their true identity and purpose!

WHY: To learn and expand our mind to other parts of the world. To serve by teaching local students. To grow in our Spanish skills as well as in confidence, leadership and in our faith.

Note: With the constant changing rules and restrictions related to Covid-19, Endurance Leadership has chosen for each participant to be responsible in getting the necessary Covid-19 testing prior to and during travel. The rules may change at any time related to the vaccine or testing so we will keep each participant up to date on requirements and allow individuals and families to acquire what is necessary for travel. Whatever the current cost of the Covid-19 test in Uruguay, please note that this cost is not provided by Endurance Leadership.

TRIP ADD-ONS: We have had trip participants in the past add on an excursion to Buenos Aires, Argentina at their own expense. Since there are many variables and choices regarding that trip, please let our staff know.
