Our Approach

Our Approach

We coordinate efforts of short term service with long-term local leaders to accomplish projects that impact communities. Impact is the improvement of living standards, health, community life, education, economic opportunity, and spirituality.

We partner with the key people and organizations in our destinations, those entities that are already creating a positive impact in their communities. We cultivate relationships with local leaders, and listen to and build up the naturally connected leaders of the community. Together we seek out development projects that are in the interests of local leadership to create sustainable and better futures.

Our Story

Our Story

Mazatlan Missions comes from our origin in 1997 when our family moved to Mazatlán, Sinaloa on the Pacific coast of Mexico to work alongside local churches and leaders. For almost ten years we lived and served in our community. Now more than twenty years later, we continue our approach of immersing into the community through local leaders and expanding service and impact across the world.
