Being His Hands & Feet...
John Wesley once stated,
“Do all the good you can,
That is our desire! Team Zambia's priority is to follow God's will by serving His people. James 1:27 states, "Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you." With 1/3 of all people in Zambia suffering from AIDS, there are many orphans who do not have the love of a mother or father that so many of us take for granted. We will be working closely with a missionary couple under Light of Africa doing many different services: painting three orphanages, teaching AIDS awareness seminars, teaching the basics of hygiene and many other things. Please be a part of this ministry opportunity by helping us serve the children of Zambia and click the DONATE ONLINE button above! We appreciate your prayer and support. We are scheduled to leave May 11 and will be back June 11.
“Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”

Why We Do Missions...
"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has set me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion - to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations. And you will be called priests of the LORD, you will be named ministers of our God."
Isaiah 61:1-4, 6
