Burundi
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.
We have an eyeglass clinic, provide "The Shoe that Grows" and a counseling/prayer area on our trip.
Join our medical outreach and together we will make a life long impact as we serve in Burundi. For more information/questions regarding this trip, please contact us: [email protected]
