Mission Trip Opportunities 2012
Haiti
UBA will have one mission trip to Haiti in November. The need is still great. This trip will be medical. We need medical personnel. Although not required, it would be great to have doctors, nurses, EMT's, pharmacists, and other persons in the medical field. We also need non-medical people who can assist with things like chaplaincy, errands, or playing with children. We will be working with two Haitian doctors who will organize and lead the medical team. There is a tremendous potential for personal witnessing in the clinics. Interpreters will be provided. We will stay in a comfortable and secure mission house. We will eat American food cooked by a wonderful North Carolina hostess. The price of $1,100 is all inclusive. It includes airfare, food, lodging, and insurance. You may want to bring a little cash for souvenirs or gifts and gratuities. The payments are $500 for registration and the remaining $600 sixty days before departure.
DATES: November 21-27
Peru
The Peru trip is for construction and evangelism. You can help construct a school for ministry and your work and legacy will live on for generations. There is also opportunity for personal evangelism and seeing a beautiful part of the world. There are two teams on consecutive weeks. If you so desire, Team A can stay on another week with Team B. This mission trip is planned for Team A), August 25th to September 1st and Team B) September 1st to September 8th with a third option of 11 days. We will leave Charlotte and arrive in Lima, Peru; then fly to Ayacucho, a beautiful mountainside established community with its fair share of poverty. This is where we are to be involved with assisting to build a facility for pastors and missionaries to stay while in Ayacucho and evangelize in the mountain villages. This will be a Life Changing Experience! We will be sharing the gospel of our Great Savior Jesus all the way.
Guatemala
Guatemala is a wonderful place for missions. The need is so great and there is so much to do. UBA has already done four mission trips to Guatemala City for ministry and construction. The next trip is still in the planning stage. It is expected to be in October, depending on the needs of the mission organization. The mission organization, Hearts for Heaven, has feeding stations which feed hundreds of children every week, does food distribution, disaster relief, and prepares Bible School materials for churches all over Guatemala. The mission house is the home of the missionary and is very comfortable. The cost of the trip will be $1,400, more or less, depending on the cost of air travel. This price will include air travel, lodging, food, insurance and other miscellaneous expenses. You may need a little cash for souvenirs, entertainment, and gratuities. We are limited to eight participants. In the past, we have had some churches to form the whole team. If you would like to make this a church-wide project for your church, please reserve positions soon.
South Africa
This two week trip is under consideration. We are surveying to see if there is enough interest before moving on with the planning. This will be for pastors only. It would involve pairing with seminary students and going out to tribal churches to preach on two consecutive Sundays. The week between will be spent at Cape Town Baptist Seminary teaching and consulting with students. Although more definite plans will be made before enrollment, it is hoped that the last few days will involve touring and seeing some of the most beautiful country and sea between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. There will be up to five participants.
