Details

ENGAGE the Children. BUILD Relationships. SHARE Your Skills. IMMERSE Yourself in Culture. EXPLORE Africa.

A partner visit combines the skills and interests of our people with the needs and interests of the people of Magoro. For example, if you know how to knit, teach others; if you love soccer, play with the kids; if you're an optometrist, offer an eye clinic; if you're a teacher, offer a workshop... The possibilities are endless!

We have all been given gifts, skills, and talents that God can use to bless the people of Magoro!

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10
