What the Mission Trip Will Be Like

Nikki and Friend 615

This mission trip is open to everyone!!

Your trip fee of $3685.00 includes round trip international airfare from most major cities worldwide. The team member fee also helps some to offset the costs of the materials related to the projects we serve. Your fee also includes most of your meals, safari costs, ground transportation, in-country air travel, and secure host and hotel lodging. .

You will help with light construction on a much-needed dormitory at a Special Needs school in rural Kenya. You may also be helping to do finish work on a Pastor's home near another Special Needs school. We are asked to do whatever is needed which may include digging foundations, mixing concrete, making blocks or bricks, and setting them into place…you will really be doing this! We'll also host a one-day primary care community clinic and help the doctors and nurses take care of the needs of many students, their families, elderly, and orphans. No experience is necessary and there is no shortage of children and students with whom you can make friends. We'll teach you everything you will need to do; everyone takes part! Time permitting, we may also visit several other schools to offer encouragement and assess their upcoming needs to see how we might help in the future. We'll also interview students in order to find sponsors who will help with school fees. We also host Prayer walks as often as possible on the school campuses.

You are needed!!

Think of it…you can be part of projects that change lives, give hope, and offer the saving grace of Jesus to everyone, even if you just wish to share with any of the classes at the schools, play volleyball, basketball, or soccer, visit the grade schools next door, or just hold babies and hug many of the greatest kids in the world. You will never forget these experiences!

Even though experience is never required, we could benefit by having those on our team who know a bit about construction, brick work, block work, well drillers, water tank fabricator, Hydroponics, Agroponics, plumbing, solar, concrete workers, electricians, medicine, doctors, nurses, first aid, and other related fields. After all, we don't know everything but have very qualified team leaders to help you learn how to do much of the needed work.

Not all work and no play…this team will take part in a safari game drive at a national game park to view wild animals in their natural habitat. We'll also do some shopping for souvenirs at the Maasai market and finish our debriefing in Nairobi before going home. And like it says above, you'll be doing some sightseeing too whenever possible.
