South Africa mission trip July 25-30 Safari July 30-Aug.1
This is your chance to make a difference in so many children’s lives. We have the opportunity to help 80 pre-school children and babies at Mpumelelo Daycare center, along with two separate orphanages where up to 60 children live. The Daycare center was started so the parents of these children can find or go to work without worrying about their babies. Before the daycare center these children were often left alone all day.
Our trip will include entertainment by the children, several projects, helping with a food pantry, visiting the Shantytown where they live, games, learning about their culture, dinner party at each orphanage and half day excursion in Johannesburg visiting the Soweto and museums.
We will be staying in Johannesburg at a wonderful guest house where breakfast and dinner is provided. You will fly into JNB on your own, where you will be picked up at and taken to the lodge.
Our Host at the Lodge is Francois Jones.
