Adult Maasai Mission Trip

Join us March 22-April 1, 2025, on our Adult Maasai Mission Trip to Kenya. Meet our longtime Maasai partners and help build a clinic. Interested congregants, please gather in the Parlor on Sunday, September 15, at 11:15am for an informational meeting. Sign-ups are in progress and will run through October 4. Contact Marianna Kilbride at marianna@godsacre.org.

The Mission: This year’s mission will be to help build a clinic in the village of Ilngarooj. When people are sick, they often do not get treatment due to the long walk to receive healthcare. Often, children are not vaccinated for TB, Polio, and additional diseases largely eradicated in other parts of the world. Women give birth at home to avoid difficult travel to reach a further clinic. The new clinic will address all these things.  It will include a consultation room, a pharmacy, a lab, an injection room, and labor, delivery, and neonatal care rooms. After the clinic is built, it will be free for residents, staffed, and run by the government.  An equally important part of our mission is to be in relationship with the Maasai community. We will have a chance to see the projects in action we have helped to bring about and to meet the Maasai people we have partnered with on them.
