This Asian island nation, and former Spanish colony then American protectorate, is a country in tension, trying to cross the threshold between the third and first world. It offers a variety of landscapes – beaches, mountains, volcanic lakes – and languages, with Tagalog as the national tongue. The Catholic Church is a substantial piece of the religious pie, however, and Islam is growing in the island of Mindinao.
The Filipino people love music, dance and community. While there, you will find yourself living with and giving hope to the destitute, caring for orphans, and challenging the growing number of Christ-followers to rise up.
Ministry:
You will be partnering with Kids International Ministries, a non-governmental organization that provides food, shelter, education, and medical attention to at-risk children in indigent communities.
Because Kids International Ministries has so many different programs, they allow participants to serve based on needs, gifting, and calling. This can include children’s ministry, Bible camps, orphan care, lots of sports ministry, and light construction work. Wherever you serve, you are sure to bring hope to the children living in poverty in the Philippines.
Will you share God’s love in the Philippines?
