Use your talents to support international medical missions by partnering with Mission Partners for Christ.

We provide medications, treatments, screenings, and health education to underserved populations around the world.
Burundi
July 14-23, 2023
Burundi is one of the smallest countries in Africa. The majority of the population lives in rural areas which has lead to deforestation (overpopulation), soil erosion and habitat loss. Burundians experience a great deal of poverty, corruption, poor access to healthcare, education and hunger. Mission Partners for Christ has been partnering with CAPRO Calvary Ministries in Burundi since 2019 and supported a clean water project so thousands of people have access to clean water each day. CAPRO is committed to sharing the gospel in unreached areas and discipleship training. During this trip you will also have an opportunity to serve alongside some young Burundian doctors to encourage their volunteer work in the remote/rural places.
For this trip we desire:
Physicians, dentists, medical students, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, physician assistants, optometrists, physical/occupational therapists and non-medical helpers.
Cost $2700
Togo
November 4-13th, 2023
For this trip we desire:
Both medical professionals and those who work outside the medical field who have hearts to serve.
Physicians, dentists, medical students, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, physician assistants, optometrists, physical/occupational therapists will play an integral role in our health clinics. Non-medical participants are also deeply needed as they will be responsible for helping with logistics, eyeglass distribution or expandable shoes for the children.
About Togo and The Togolese People:
Togo is located in West Africa. We will fly into Lome and travel north. The medical team will serve in 4 rural villages that are very interested in being involved in a 3-5 year coaching process to transform themselves and break the cycle of poverty. Together with our partner, Global Hope Network International, we will host a free medical outreach and provide health education.
The life expectancy for a Togolese is 65 years. The infant mortality rate is 43 out of 1,000. The under 5 mortality rate is 100 per 1000 children. Health education is a very important part of the medical care we provide. Unfortunately many people do not realize they have high blood pressure and if they do, they do not know how to manage it properly.
What To Expect:
There are over 39 different ethnic groups with many different languages, but don’t worrry if you don’t speak the languages: we will have translators! During the trip you will enjoy some local food and experience the culture of the people. This will be a trip of a lifetime where you will serve with other like-minded volunteers and creating friendships to last a lifetime!
Cost $2850
