Ukraine 1 - Care for and comfort orphans
July 29 - August 8, 2012
Care for and comfort orphans
This mission will allow you to connect with, care for and comfort about 120 orphans (ages 6 - 16) in a remote area of Ukraine. Most of these children have been at the orphanage their entire lives and have not had the opportunity to know Jesus. With these beautiful children, you will have the privilege of sharing Bible stories, playing games and sports, conducting evening programs, doing crafts and being a source of love and attention for those who have a great need to know the love of Jesus. Simply sitting down and carrying on a conversation with these children and getting to know them is a powerful way to let them know they are not forgotten and that someone does care about them.
Cost: $2,600
Age: 14+
