MAKE A LASTING IMPACT ON ORPHANS AND KIDS IN NEED:
Zimbabwe is home to many orphans. You’ll have the opportunity to serve children who have faced immense hardships, showing them the love of Jesus through a camp-style ministry that brings both fun and hope.
You’ll not only work directly with the kids but also help train young adults who have graduated from kids’ programs and have a heart for children's ministry. These young leaders will work alongside you and then take what they’ve learned to other villages, multiplying your impact across the country.
EMPOWER FUTURE LEADERS:
Zimbabwe offers a unique, eye-opening experience where you’ll see the challenges that come with poverty and the AIDS epidemic, but also work alongside strong Zimbabwean Christians who have incredible stories of resilience and faith. This trip will stretch you personally and spiritually, giving you a deeper understanding of international ministry.
EXPERIENCE REAL CULTURAL IMMERSION:
Serving in a country with such deep needs will help you grow in your relationship with God, as you’ll be challenged to pour out love and live out your faith in a tangible way. The relationships you build and the seeds you plant will stay with you long after you leave.
GROW IN FAITH AND SERVICE:
Take your pick of serving in Zimbabwe for two or four weeks. If you can commit to a full month, you’ll not only experience twice the ministry but also save money! By staying for a month, you’ll get a full, immersive experience for a better price compared to two weeks, all while only needing to purchase one airline ticket.
