01/18/23 Covid Update: Zimbabwe requires travelers to have a negative covid test taken no more than 48 hours before departure of their first flight. Covid vaccines are not required. We will work with team members to make sure they have all the needed documentation for travel. There’s also a good chance this rule will be lifted entirely before summer of 2023.
Team Activities
In a country of orphans there’s no end to the children’s ministry needed. Zimbabwe is one of the most economically depressed countries in the world and AIDS has ravaged the adult population, leaving many orphans without training, parenting, or provision. You can be a part of loving the kids of Zimbabwe and showing them Jesus through a camp-style ministry.
In addition, you can help train a group of young adults who have graduated from the orphanages and have a heart for children’s ministry. They will work alongside our team, help us run camps, and then take the concepts of the curriculum to more villages around Zimbabwe.
Expect to be challenged as stretched as you pour out love in a part of the world that needs to experience the love of Christ in action.
