What the Mission Trip Will Be Like

It Never Gets Old!!

YOUR $3285 trip fee includes RT air travel and this opportunity is open to everyone!

The team member fee also includes hotel and host lodging, campstyle lodging, most of your meals, in-country flights, ground transportation, medicines for the outreach, a daytime Safari Game Drive, and some of the materials related to the project. You will be part of a team that is helping with on-going, light construction needs for a vocational training center at a school for disabled children. Your team will also create walkways and pathways for wheelchair access at two of the schools and help our staff interview candidates for scholarships. Your group will also be helping to do light work on a classroom at a secondary school in a nearby slum that was created mostly for orphans. The schools are located in the mountains of Western Province near a large rain forest. Yeah, you'll be doing all of this…really! And don't worry about experience, we'll train you. Our teams always work alongside locals helping to provide the labor to make concrete blocks, dig foundations, mix concrete, apply paint, and do whatever else it is that we can to make this dream a reality.

And the Ministry of Health provides nurses and doctors to help treat the medical needs of hundreds of local people, seniors, and students, many of whom have never seen a doctor before…and you'll be helping these caring people who have volunteered their time to give back to the people they truly love. Your group will host at least two of these community-wide primary care medical camps. Lots of opportunities to make new friends, hold babies, and pray with people who need to be held in prayer too. And at least one Prayer Walk is scheduled at one of the schools we serve where several hundred people gather to walk the school grounds as they lift up their students and school needs in prayer to Jesus; this is always a great time!

And we won't wear you out. Past teams managed to get out and visit Lake Victoria for an afternoon and others went to the Equator. Your group will also take part on a day time safari Game Drive to see the wild animals at home in one of the famous Kenya game parks. This is an excellent opportunity to answer God's call on your heart to serve with an unselfish group in an area of Africa where everyone truly needs to know that Jesus loves them! Once we have completed the mission, the team will debrief before going home.

This service opportunity will change your life!

Relation of Opportunity to National Church and/or Long-term Goals

The special needs orphan home was begun to meet the burgeoning needs in the area, mostly with children with Cerebral Palsy. The local churches and pastors play a key role in management and development. There are six secondary schools we work with and all were started by local churches.
