Sozo Women’s Team 2019
June 24 - July 03, 2019
Afghanistan
Trip Leaders: Amanda Brown and Kelly Wykes
Team Size: 8
Trip Details
Women who have a heart for connecting with other ladies, who are team-players, love throwing a good party and sharing God’s love through connection and relationship are encouraged to apply for this all-women’s team. This team will interact with our partner Sozo International in Afghanistan. The team will have the opportunity to engage with Afghan women in special and unique ways that are limited on a co-ed or all-men’s team. The vision for this trip will be to continue in relationship with Sozo’s female staff members and women they serve, to honor them, learn from them, celebrate similarities and differences, engage in their work (such as home visits with the families of the school children and interaction with community health workers) and offer support by reflecting how much God loves them. You can learn more about Sozo on their website.
E-mail missions@flatironschurch.com with any questions.
