Egypt
Work and play go hand in hand on
this adventure. You will be serving in the city of Luxor alongside
the staff at a Christian orphanage. Luxor is the modern site of the
ancient city of Thebes-built hundreds of years before the time of
Moses-and has been recognized as the "world's greatest open air
museum."
"But you, O God, do see
trouble and grief; you consider it to take it in hand. The victim
commits himself to you; you are the helper of the
fatherless."
(Psalms 10:14) |
TRIP OVERVIEW
Your heart will be touched by the large number of needy children
in the area. Many go without adequate food or shelter for the
night. Thankfully, these little ones are served by the orphanage we
partner with on this adventure. The work here will involve major
building repairs, basic maintenance, painting and cleaning. You
will work side-by-side with the dedicated orphanage staff that
cares for the kids year-round. Not only will you be helping the
kids, but you'll communicate to the orphanage staff just how
significant their work really is.
There will be plenty of time to play with the kids, enriching
their lives by just having fun together. Their smiles and laughter
will let you know just how big a difference you are making by being
here. It will be hard for you and your group to leave when your
Lifetree Adventure ends, but you'll depart knowing you've made an
investment from which these beautiful children will benefit for
years to come.
"I'm very grateful to have had the
opportunity to be on this trip."
