Ministry Description

Word of Life Belize started at the end of 2010 with Bible Clubs.

For the past 4 years WOL has been running a one week camp in the month of July, in the Orange Walk district. In 2015 God is giving us the opportunity to add two more weeks, one for kids and one in the Belmopan city for students. These are completely in English.

The Staff is made up of one couple, one single girl and four single men. God is doing great things, and we have many opportunities for ministry as God opens doors to work with High Schools.

Country Description

Belize is a country on the eastern coast of Central America, bordering Guatemala and Mexico. It has the world’s second-largest coral barrier reef. It is the only country in Central America whose official language is English, though Belizean Creole (Kriol) and Spanish are also commonly spoken. Belize has a diverse society, with many cultures and languages. Originally part of the British Empire, it shares a common colonial history with other Anglophone Caribbean countries. According to the 2010 census, 40.1% of Belizeans are Roman Catholics and 31.8% are Protestants (includes Pentecostals, Adventists, Anglicans, Mennonites, Baptist, Methodist, and Nazarene).
