"The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." (Mark 10:45)
Go and serve are two themes tied together in a short-term mission trip. It is an act of worship. You can get a glimpse of God's work in the lives of those you meet. You will exclaim at the greatness of God!

Weekend training for youth leaders
This is a ministry to serve those young Christians who have a heart to serve in youth ministry. They are craving for guidance to live as a witness for God in their work and study. Therefore, we plan for 4 weekend retreats to lead them in Bible study and to build a lasting and meaningful relationship with them.
We need volunteers to lead small group Bible study and become mentors for the youth leaders. Participants must be conversant in Mandarin.
Date: March 19 - 21, May 21 - 23, mid-Sep & mid-Nov Cost: HK$2000 (approx.)

Love English Camp in Hubei
Love English Camp is a unique ministry that allows us to build up friendships with Chinese students and share the love that we have experienced in Christ. We need phonics teachers for small group tutorial sessions, group leaders to help out in games and activities, musicians to lead singing, and also technical people for audio-visual support.
Language is not a problem. All the activities are conducted in English and the kids will be more than happy to converse with you in English. As a bonus for those who are interested, we will have an optional 3-day church history tour in Hubei and Jiangxi after the camp.
Date: mid-July, 2010 (exact date to be confirmed in early March) Cost: HK$4000

Love Mongolia Camp
The purpose of the trip is to reach out to and spend time with underprivileged kids, who are either orphans or "economic" orphans under the care of a government-run shelter in Outer Mongolia.These are the same kids for whom our Christmas Love Offering gift was raised.
Each summer, the kids are sent to a summer camp, away from the city. Our mission is to show Christ's love by spending time with them. Besides doing games, sports, arts & crafts with the kids, this year, we hope to incorporate more messages of encouragement, moral values and educational, character-building elements into our activities. We are calling for men and women, particularly men, with gentle and loving hearts, who are willing to spend a week at camp with the kids.
Date: 17-25, July 2010 (Saturday - Sunday) Cost: Approximately HK$12,000

Phnom Penh, once considered to be the loveliest of Indochina's French-built cities, was called the "Pearl of Asia". For some, the capital city can be quite a shock. Phnom Penh can be a very hot and dusty, the streets are busy with cars, people, motorbikes and street children begging for hand outs. In the past 30 years the country has undergone extreme challenges, war and destruction. Poverty can be seen in every corner.

·To connect and network with churches, pastors, leaders and mission agency field workers within a local region of Cambodia that have the gospel at heart, with the view of securing a long term partnering arrangement
·To provide hands-on, practical, active service using our time, energy, skills and resources to help meet immediate physical and emotional needs and to share the gospel
Our program will encompass sharing love, compassion and support to orphan children rescued from a life on the streets and HIV positive children; working with school and churches in rural area and sharing the good news with the communities.
We need volunteers with a lot of patience and come prepared with creative ideas and games to share with the kids and communities at large.
