A: We are an Inter-denominational christian ministry with the sole purpose of encouraging christians from the west, especially the United States to get involved in missions in Africa(East Africa in particular). Our dream is that we all are able to make a difference in other people's lives while we share our passion and grow with other christians, in our walk and service to the Master.
A: Plan on traveling to East Africa as a missionary for a few weeks or months, tell us your interests and when you plan to travel and get ready to go. If you can go, you can help us raise donations of clothes, text books,medicines for tropical diseases, bibles and computers. All these items will be distributed to the people in East Africa free of charge. You may also make a financial donation.
Q: What should I expect?
A: Basically we strive to use our different skills and experiences to make a life change in someone else.If you are a doctor, we will get you to volunteer a medical clinic for the local people in the mission field. If you are a teacher, you teaching experience will be greatly needed. But that does not mean we divide ourselves, we keep together and try to help in anyway we can. Even if you are not a constructor, we may still need you to help out with contsruction. You maybe asked to sing even if you are not a singer. this is just to make our stay fun and make us grow stronger in the Lord. Christianity is about celebrating life and that is what we strive to achieve, and offer that opportunity to all those other people who don't have that life yet because they don't know the Lord as Master and Savior.
A: Yes as long as you are committed to making a difference in another person's life and you are yearning for spiritual growth, this is a very good place for you to be. The best place to grow in your christian walk is outside your comfort zone. I have noticed that the new converts are always so earger for the Lord, and missions offers them an opportunity to grow and stay strong.
A: We always want to go as a group, that way we can make a bigger difference and at the same time watch out for each other. Ofcourse you can register as an indiidual, but we will not travel until we are able to raise the minimum number for the team to travel.
A: Yes parents can make the trip with their children. This helps expose the
young mind to the missions field yet it also keeps the family together.
A: Yes we coordinate our activities with ministries at the places we go to and we try as much as possible to work with them. We also make it possible for our team to attend atleast 1 sunday service at a local church where we go to.
