MISSION OPPORTUNITY

The women of the Southern Illinois District (SID) of the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML) are joining some LWML members of the Florida/Georgia district on a mission trip to Kenya next July. We will leave from Atlanta on July 18 after spending the night with the team in Atlanta on July 17. We return to Atlanta on July 29. While in Kenya, we will have 4 days of medical clinics. While we can find a job for anyone wanting to go, we would love to take more people from the medical field. We should be able to keep the cost of the trip to under $4000. Buying the airline ticket is half the expense and needs to be done soon. Currently the ticket is under $2000. Here is the website for Medical Mission Teams. You can also follow them on FB. https://medicalmissionteams.org/index.php 

We currently have 3 people going from SID. Please email president@sidlwml.org if you are interested or want more information.

Please pray for the people of Kenya and the team going to serve. They also welcome donations of Thrivent t-shirts, pillowcase dresses, used eyeglasses, and canes. They always have a need for new Bibles and catechisms (ask about the specifics) to give to the students.
