Q&A: Mission trips for Africa in the summer of 2012?
Question by mxlover11: Mission trips for Africa in the summer of 2012?
I’m just trying to find a mission trip to help people in Africa but im not seeming to have any luck. I’m 16 and would be going with adults definately. I was looking for something like helping kids but all i can find is ministry/preaching/church stuff. I’m not too interested in that. Just loooking to help feed/build buildings and things like that.

if you aren’t 18, you probably won’t find much..

Mission Trips in and of themselves usually share a two-fold purpose.. Evangelism and outreach.
Many churches travel to Africa in groups of 10 or more in the spring and summer months.
You may want to ask the Missions coordinator at your church, or larger churches in your area if any are going on mission trips to Africa and see who you can hook up with. You are NEVER too young to go on a mission trip abroad.. unless the mission organization sponsoring the trip has set a certain age requirement for certain outreach trips.
If you do not want to specifically go on an evangelistic service trip (Mission Trip).. you may just want to google Humanitarian Outreach trips, but that is where I think you will find the most age limits.
Hope this helps, and Good Luck!!
