Each year, around 500
people travel to the mission field with Lifeline to
share in a cross-cultural experience. Work trips are
tailored to the individual participants' needs and
abilities, but each trip has certain standard,
built-in activities that
Lifeline believes provide for a
well-rounded
experience.
Each
participant:
-
Shares their own
prepared devotion with the team during one of our
devotion times, held twice daily.
-
Participates in home
visits for personal witnessing, prayer and sharing
with the people in the communities where Lifeline is
ministering.
-
Has the opportunity to
teach children and adults through programs such as
Christian
schools, VBS, Ladies Bible Studies, Men's Bible
Studies, Medical/Dental Clinic Devotions,
Nutrition Program, and much more.
-
Shares in
physical projects such as construction, painting,
gardening, electrical work, masonry, carpentry,
plumbing, cooking, distributing clothing/toys/food,
cleaning, medical and dental work and much more.
-
Has a time of rest,
relaxation, recreation, site seeing and
shopping for native cultural crafts and artwork.
In addition to the above
activities, Lifeline provides opportunities for team
members to utilize any specialized skills, talents,
gifts, experience or vocational skills such as
preaching, music, sign language, artwork, performing
puppet programs, sewing, teaching woodworking/crafts,
mechanics, leading/teaching physical education, holding
teacher training sessions, health/hygiene related
teaching and more.
By
providing a well-rounded experience, team members return
home with a better understanding of (1) missions in
general (practicing The Great Commission); (2) foreign
culture; (3) God's church worldwide; (4) Lifeline
Christian Mission; and (5)
themselves. Additionally,
they grow spiritually from the experience of living and
working day and night with other Christians who are also
seeking to please God and to better know His will for
their lives.
