East Africa October 16 - 31/2015

WHEN
Oct 16 2015 - Oct 31 2015
COST
$3,915.00
URGENT NEEDS: Primary Care Physicians, PAs, NPs, General Dentists, Physical Therapists, Logistic personnel (general helpers) and a Pastor or two.

Required Documentation for Medical & Dental Professionals: Current practicing license with expiration date visible, medical, dental, nursing school transcript and diploma, letter of good standing (hospital privileges) and CV. All participants will need to have a valid passport that is current for at least 6 months after the departure date. A tourist visa is required for entry in this country.

On this trip we will be ministering and serving to the Borana Pastoralists (farmers) who live in the southern area of the Oromia Regional State of Ethi*pia. We will stay in the town of Moy*le, a two-day bus trip from Add*s Ab*ba on the Ethi*pia border.

The Lord is moving mightily in this remote area, and has raised up 28 new home churches in the past two years from the strong church planting movement underway there. The Borana people depend on raising livestock and trading for both food and their income. There is very low coverage of health services in this area, and many people die before they can get to even basic first aid services.
