Zambia, Africa (June 2008)
In June 2008, we sent a team of 11 missionaries to touch the lives of people living in one of the most difficult areas in the world. Aids and poverty have had profound effects on this country of 11,000,000 people in Southern Africa. In partnership with International Teams, our missionaries served for three weeks in Livingstone. Here is our Zambia Team:
While in Africa, we worked alongside our Zambian partners in well-established churches to help develop sustainable ministries that will reach out to this nation with a message of hope and love. Our team had a wide variety of ministry opportunities including:
- Construction. We helped to build a Regional Ministry Centre
- Orphanage work.
- We worked with people suffering from Aids.
- Food distribution to the poor.
- Evangelism
Please pray for the people of Zambia. For more information on this project please contact Heather Peake.
We thank you for your generous support and prayers!!
Quito, Ecuador (August 2006)
In August of 2006 Greenwood sent their very first team of missionaries to South America to work on a variety of building projects at a local Retreat Centre. In partnership with International Teams, our missionaries served for three weeks in Quito, Ecuador.
While in Ecuador, we were blessed to work alongside a dedicated team of English and Spanish speaking Christians at El Refugio, a retreat and training centre that spreads the Gospel to local school children through outdoor adventure camps. Our team had a wide variety of ministry opportunities including:
- Construction. We helped lay the foundation for a new Leadership Training Centre.
- Orphanage work.
- Ministry to the poor.
- Day-Care work at a local dump.
Thank you for your prayer and financial support of our Quito team as they ministered to the people of Ecuador.
