These mission trips to Russia are excellent times to go and be Jesus´ “hands and feet” to those abandoned by family and society. You will spend time in a Summer Camp and/or several Orphanages during your stay. You are encouraged to develop relationships (critical in the Russian culture) with children and staff. This also allows the opportunity to be effective evangelists. As God supplies, funds will be provided for humanitarian aid to the orphans.
BEFORE YOU JOIN A TEAM YOU SHOULD:
- be a committed Christian who has displayed this commitment in word and action, so that other mature Christians will be able to recommend you for this trip
