“Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of orphans. Fight for the rights of widows.” Isaiah 1:17
Are you being called serve the orphan? Could it be through a short-term trip to Iraq or Ethiopia this May? Begin your journey today…
You’ll experience discipleship, team building, orphan-related research and training as we explore together what it means to “learn to do good [and to] seek justice.”
Iraq
Learn more about engaging cross-culturally in the Middle East. This team will serve in an important city in Iraqi Kurdistan near the borders of Turkey and Iran with a large concentration of widows and single orphans. The team will work at a community center to facilitate an outreach camp for the neighborhood children and conduct an English camp with local schools to build relationships with children through games, lessons, recreation, music, and arts/crafts. Learn more about the culture in the Middle East and how you can advocate for the children in this part of the world.
Applications are due March 13.
Ethiopia
Join us on a trip to Ethiopia, one of Africa’s poorest countries. Almost two-thirds of its people are illiterate. The economy revolves around agriculture, which in turn relies on rainfall. The country is one of Africa’s leading coffee producers. Our team will serve alongside Ethiopian believers and assist with various orphan-related ministries at our church partner locations. Learn more about God’s heart for the fatherless through meaningful, engaging experiences. Come learn about the orphan crisis in this country and what you can do to take action to help combat this problem.
