Pacific May 13-28/2016, SR1253
TRIP IS CLOSED!
This will be GHO’s third trip to serve in this remote island in a large country in the South Pacific, where God has greatly blessed our ministry. We are very excited about returning to minister both medically and spiritually.
The GHO team will fly into an international city, usually by a few different routes to reduce cost and travel time. Then the team will fly together to our destination (the domestic airfare for this additional flight is included in your trip fee).
We partner with a local Christian hospital, with some in-country missionaries, as well with Healthcare Christian Fellowship (HCF), who recruits young Christian physicians, dentists and nurses from many different regions of the country to work as translators/colleagues alongside us.
During the first week, we will set up our clinic at the local Christian hospital and then at more remote sites (in churches, schools and/or homes). We will stay at a comfortable hotel week one.
Then during the second week, we will travel south across the island and then take a boat to a small island with a population of roughly 1,000 people, who are an unreached people group. We will stay on that island for a couple of days and do some pioneering medical mission work before flying back to an international city, where the GHO team has a day off before flying home.
The trip will be demanding physically, professionally and spiritually. This is a great opportunity to share the love of Christ, while growing more into the likeness of our Savior. This is not a "missionary tourism" trip, though the island is beautiful and the people are gracious and the climate is pleasant.
My prayer is that God will build His team of twelve humble servants to labor in this spiritually challenging environment. Together we will care for many lost people in the Name of Christ, while proclaiming the glorious gospel by both demonstration and proclamation.
Please prayerfully consider joining this team and serving the least, the last and the lost. If you are interested in obtaining more detailed information, please contact Dr. O’Callaghan by email at [email protected] or phone at 616-886-2817 and request a Team Orientation Manual.
