What You Can Expect
You won’t change this country with one trip but this country will change you. Prepare to be loved and accepted with open arms by the beautiful people here. Prepare for your eyes to be opened to the reality of a very different culture, amidst abject poverty. Prepare to be available to serve in whatever capacity and gifting the Lord has given you. Prepare for your spiritual life to be shifted and molded, as you enter into holy work in His name.
Be Flexible
This was the advice given to me by my first mission trip leader (who is now my husband!) and wow, did it ever come in handy. From our translator being denied access into the country, to our luggage full of VBS supplies not showing up, to a slew of other speedbumps, being flexible let me witness the miraculous work and provision of the Lord in all these moments. You are in good hands with us, when you come and serve here. All we ask is that you are flexible, teachable and available to be used by the Lord.
Join Us!
Your team could serve in a variety of ways. We will work closely with you to determine which ministries and activities are best suited, in order to meet real needs in the communities we serve, as well as best utilize your teams skills and gifting. We will ensure all logistics are taken care of before arrival in the country and serve with your team throughout your trip. Come and experience the amazing culture and country! Together we can elevate local leadership, stimulate the hurting tourism economy and learn about, and become advocates for the children and families we serve!
