Join our Roma/Gypsy ministry team and reach out to new families in the Roma community of Vlore this summer!
This mission opportunity will partner with our Roma/Gypsy ministry team which has just begun in the city of Vlore. You will be helping them to do clean-up in the Old Beach area in order to reach out to the people who live in that area.
Ferðing og trygging er ikki við í prísinum.
Fyrivarni verður tikið fyri kursbroytingum.
The Old Beach area has some very dilapidated buildings where some of the poorest people in Vlora live. It is a very picturesque area with both the sea and mountains. Yet it is one of the dirtiest areas in all of the city. Through a clean-up campaign in the area, we can show how to care for God's creation, and at the same time, reach out to the people who live in that area. We can show God's love and care for His very best creation - each one of them who He made in His image and likeness - and share the Gospel while we serve their community.
We welcome those who have faith in Jesus, who are flexible, considerate of others and with servant hearts. Participants need to speak English moderately well, as that is the language we will be using within the group.
You will stay in Vlore in the church or the houses of locals and OMers.
All meals are provided. Please notify us if you have any dietary restrictions.
Participants need to book and pay for their own travel to Albania and flight back home. Flight costs are not included.
Each participant is encouraged to have their own travel insurance and must notify us of any dietary or medical conditions so that we can make the necessary arrangements. Please check if any vaccinations are needed.
Please check if your country requires a tourist visa. This site can be a helpful start https://www.ivisa.com/albania-visa?
If coming as a group it is ideal to have equal number males and females for work among this people group, giving the opportunity to reach the whole family instead of just the ladies.
Price is approximate, this will be updated to an accurate cost as soon as possible.
