Explore Philippines
Date: 12 February – 1 March 2010
Cost: $2,750*
Join a group of 12 people for a two week adventure to the Philippines. There you will have opportunity to see what God is doing in another part of the world, to learn more about effective cross-cultural mission work and to serve and encourage in practical ways.
Flying into Manila, we will stay at the NTM’s guesthouse. We'll experience what new missionaries experience as they first come to the field. We will also encounter the shocking contrasts between huge, elaborate shopping malls and devastatingly poor slums. From Manila we will fly to Palawan and spend some time at the guesthouse and supply centre for the region.
As part of the trip there will be:
- Daily devotions
- Chats covering topics like:
‘Culture Shock’, ‘Why Missions?’, ‘What is the Gospel?’, ‘Introducing Jesus to Another Culture (or even our own)’, ‘Teaching the Bible in Another Culture’, ‘Discipleship’, ‘The Goal of Missions’, ‘Introduction to Culture and Language Learning’, ‘Introduction to Teaching Literacy and Bible Translation’, ‘Health Care, Community Development and Social Justice Issues’, ‘Local Religions’, ‘Teamwork’ and more.
- An extra trip to a remote tribal location where missionaries are working and team participants can rub shoulders with missionaries and tribal people. You'll be inspired by what God has been doing in the lives of the people there.
- Fun activities such as discovering more about the Filipino culture by playing ‘The Amazing Race,’ visiting a local Filipino church and sharing relational team time – e.g. a day out snorkelling, shopping and relaxing.
The stories you'll hear will encourage and challenge you. The things you'll see will blow your mind. This trip is a space for people to think and learn about God, the world and themselves. It will be an unforgettable experience that will stay with team members forever.
