Dominican Republic, June 16 - 23, 2009
Each year our team to the Dominican Republic serves the people of a few villages around the city of Santiago. They have helped build a church and food distribution center, treated thousands of people in medical clinics, shared Christ with the villagers, and played with a lot of kids. Through all the serving of others, our teams find that they were really the ones whose lives had changed! Interested in going? Call the church office, 359.2122, today!
Turkey, Summer, 2009
In the coastal city of Antalya, Turkey, there is a Christian Church named St. Paul's. St. Paul's is a welcoming place, a kind of oasis in a busy touristy city. They run a coffee shop and offer English Conversation classes. Also, each summer they organize a two week camp for 8-17 year olds that is open to kids of all backgrounds and languages, with the goal of bringing them into a closer, more meaningful relationship with God and one another.

Ukraine, June 5-15,2009
In the past, our team has invited some college students from Kiev to join them in their outreach to the village of Kiary. The teaming up of Americans and Ukrainians proves to be a great way to join Christians together to reach these villages of central Ukraine. Lena, one of the students from Kiev, said of the experience,"It was great that we were able to talk to (the people of Kiary) personally and to share the Gospel with them. God gave me courage and compassion to be able to show love to them by praising, encouraging and hugging them, asking them about their life."
Peru, July 20-31, 2009
Join us this summer as we meet the needs of kids in an orphanage and do some manual labor projects in Trujillo, Peru. More information coming soon!
