Solar School is June 4-7


Solar Under the Sun is a covenant partner of the Synod of the Sun and the outreach in Honduras and other countries and is supported by many Presbyterian churches. Solar Under the Sun is an organization that trains people in the United States and foreign countries how to work together in partnerships to alleviate energy poverty, using solar power. We believe that Jesus Christ is the light of the world and envision a reality where every person on the planet has the right to clean, sustainable, life-changing energy.



We believe that training people to help put solar energy into those communities in the developing world which lack reliable or affordable electrical power enhances education, health, and economic opportunity. In addition to enabling groups from churches that already have a mission team or mission partner, we also facilitate mission trips for individuals and small groups who have completed Solar School. Under the guidance of one of our trained team leaders, these Solar Direct trips allow people to create relationships and get hands-on experience working on a solar installation in the developing world. 


Leaders just got back from Honduras scouting our next location. 


We are planning our next Solar Direct trip there in August. Now is the time to mobilize a team. Our next Solar School is June 4-7th (Thursday – Sunday morning) at Central Presbyterian Church Fort Smith.



The (soft) deadline for enrollment is May 4th, so early registration is encouraged. It is best if churches send at least two people since there are two tracks which run concurrently,

Solar 1: which focuses on leadership, partnership development, and surveying, and

Solar 2: which focuses on system design, installation, and equipping partners.
