Network: We are a ministry of American Missionary Fellowship, an organization that has been committed to ministry in the United States since 1817. AMF has missionaries in 38 states and well over 100,000 people are impacted each year by AMF missionaries. As a result, participants of Kaleo trips have the opportunity to serve along side of ministries that will continue well after the teams have gone home. Also our network of diverse ministries allows us to provide a truly transformational ministry experience.
Training: We are committed to ensuring that our participants are well trained to do all the ministries that we partner with. As a result, we provide many resources to group leaders in the areas of fundraising, team dynamics, issues in the city, servant leadership, etc.
Excellence: We are committed to doing all things with excellence. This means that in all aspects of a Kaleo trip, from the registration process, to leader training, to actually leading the trip, we strive to do all things “as unto the Lord” (Col 3:23). We are committed to making sure that every Kaleo mission experience fulfills our mission statement of encountering Christ, transforming lives, empowering ministry and inspiring the church.
Affordability: We understand that for all of us, especially in Christian ministry, money can be tight. We are constantly striving to provide the best possible missions experience at the lowest cost possible. As a result, our trips only cost $50 per person per day. This cost includes housing, all meals while serving with Kaleo and all on-field ministry expenses.
Leadership: We desire for church leaders to be able to focus primarily on leading their teams during the week. As a result, we want to make sure that all the logistics of the trip are taken care of. Each Kaleo site has an on-site director to oversee the ministry as well as at least three Kaleo Experience Guides who will help prepare your team for the ministries you will be serving with, accompany you to the ministry sites, take you to activities and restaurants and overall serve as your guide for your trip.
