ReachOut: Our World
Because change is possible, and happening.GO Mamelodi
Hundreds of people fly to South Africa to plant gardens, build homes, teach kids and transfer sustainable skills. We pray with the sick, love on the hurting, and make new friends. Then we come back tired, joyful and changed. This year, we'll be taking two back-to-back trips in 2008: November 13-22 and November 20-29. Want to learn more?

New this year! Join 300 other volunteers from August 2-10 to help rebuild homes in New Orleans' Katrina-ravaged Upper Ninth Ward. We'll be building homes in partnership with Habitat for Humanity and helping bring hope to a city that many have forgotten.

With our partner church in Mamelodi, South Africa, we’re helping serve a country with widespread unemployment, lingering apartheid, disease and intense poverty. Volunteers with specialized training—teachers, doctors, business mentors and IT guides—go a few times each year. They’re building computer labs, assisting medical clinics and helping South Africans find and prepare for jobs. Behind the scenes, we also need logisticians, shipment-loaders and prayer support.Justice
We’re in active relationship with leading non-governmental organizations committed to fighting to free slaves around the world. Through our relationship with International Justice Mission (IJM), we’re fighting against the commercial sexual exploitation of children in Mumbai, India. We need prayers, entrepreneurs, artists, activists, lawyers, social workers and people passionate about praying for the work of justice.Please register to get the latest info on all of these opportunities as it becomes available.
