| Project Description: | This team will assist with the staff of Tumaini Miles of Smiles Centre, which is an orphanage and school in Western Kenya. The team will organize a weeklong Vacation Bible School and recreation camp for the children in the area. There will also be opportunities to disciple children and adults who already have a relationship with Christ.
This particular village where the SportsPlus team will be serving is practically untouched by Western civilization. A SportsPlus team served in this village for the first time in 2007 and was amazed at the potential of ministry. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers few. Come be a worker for the Kingdom in Kenya! Additional ministry opportunities regarding this project include conversational English discussions, youth discipleship and education, home visitations, construction and Bible studies. The SportsPlus training camp will take place from July 21-23, 2009. Volunteers will train with other mission teams and will then depart from the Atlanta airport on July 23 to go on their mission.
