donrock - Swaziland trips for adults and students! Join us!

In 2007, Don and I had the opportunity to spend a couple
of weeks in Jeffery's Bay, South Africa and Swaziland, where we were able to
see first had the needs the people there have. Now it's your turn!

Each summer we send teams to Swaziland, but this
year is a little bit different. The World Cup will be in South Africa the
summer of 2010...making airfare unaffordable for our teams. Instead, we will be sending
our Ambassador team in March when we can still afford a flight. Our friend
Amanda Roberts, who is a nurse, will be one of the leaders. She has a heart and
passion for the people of Swaziland. She spent a few months there this past
summer with our Real Life team – caring for the sick. If you are 14 or older –
adults included and would like to know more....click on the links below or
contact me. There are 2 different links...one for students, another for adults. Don
and I would love to have you join us on this trip. We both hope to return -
providing there are enough participants!

Project Overview:

Swaziland is a small
country within the borders of South Africa. Currently it is one of the
countries hardest by the HIV/AIDS crisis. With this high rate of AIDS, the life
expectancy is at an all time low as of 32 years, leaving almost every family
and individual affected, in some way, by this disease. In this country of
extreme poverty, hunger and disease we believe that Christ is the only one who
can bring the physical, emotional and spiritual healing so desperately needed.
As we are called to be Christ's hands and feet here on earth, we have the
opportunity to bring the gifts that He has given us to the people of Swaziland.
While sharing His hope, His truth, and His healing with them we will be
tangible examples of Christ's love.

Ministry Description:

Much of the
ministry involved will be ministering to people in need of healing. At the care
points we will be able to minister to children, while also bringing medical
supplies to care for wounds and other medical problems that we see. Through
home visits we will be able to meet, pray and care for those in the community.
Our ministry will be mostly medically focused, bringing knowledge and medical
supplies to those in need. However, we will also focus largely on the healing
that Christ brings - as He is the only one who can truly know each person's
needs.

If you have ever thought
of or wanted to go on a medical mission trip, or desired to be involved in
helping people through medicine, this an opportunity to use first aid skills to
help people, while also pointing them to Christ, the ultimate healer.
