SOUTH ASIA TRIPS
WHAT WILL WE DO?
On this trip, we will serve. Although group activities are subject to change, here is a sample preview of what we may do on our trip:
- Encourage children and youth in our child sponsorship program by visiting the community centers and spending time with the kids
- Meet and show God's love to widows through a message and tangible gifts of a Sari and blanket
- Assist area leaders in their ministries (For more information, email trips@gpartners.org)
- Visit and dedicate new wells installed by GPPD
As always, your safety is our priority. Our partners on the ground know and understand the language, country, and culture. They will always have your best interest in mind. We travel to and from locations by van or taxi as a group. Translators are available when needed.
