The 2018 CLC Mission Helpers to East Africa are counting down the days until their July 9th departure. This trip will allow twenty-three CLC volunteers the opportunity and privilege of proclaiming God's saving word to more than 5000 children. Some of these children will be members of CLC affiliated congregations, but most of them will not. For many of the the children this will be first time they have heard a clear and Biblical presentation of the Good News of Jesus Christ as the one who died and rose from the dead for their sins! Along with the child evangelism efforts, several pastors, teachers, and leaders in Kenya and Tanzania will receive encouragement and training from Pastors Paul Nolting and Todd Ohlmann and Teacher Ted Quade.
The twenty-three Mission Helpers will divide into three teams and travel separately to their destinations. The three teams will fly together from Chicago to Dubai. The teams flying to Tanzania and Kenya will then travel together as far as Nairobi, Kenya. Team Tanzania will then take a regional airline flight from Nairobi to Kilimanjaro. Team Zambia will fly directly from Dubai to Lusaka. Buses, Dala Dalas, Matatus, and rented vehicles will take them to a variety cities, towns, and villages where they will proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
