Dates: June 9 – July 28 — Evangelism
On guard!! Be a servant for the Lord this summer on the island of Madagascar (where you might see King Julian and the penguins). After training at the Lord’s Boot Camp on how to make puppets and mastering your puppetrey skills, you bus to the Orlando International Airport for a flight to Miami then across the Atlantic Ocean to London, England. From London, you will continue across the Mediterranean Sea, the Sahara Desert, and the Equator to Nairobi, Kenya. A connecting flight across the Mozambique Channel takes you to Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar.
A 14-hour truck ride will then take you to the northern coastal city of Mahajanga, where Teen Missions in Madagascar BiBle, Missionary & Work Training Center is located. You will teach the local kids how to make puppets and share Jesus Christ through music, drama, puppets and testimonies. Teaching phonics and English will also be a big part of your ministry.
Housing will be in dorms; bathing and laundry are done using buckets. During your free time you may visit a natural spring and waterfall or swim in the Indian Ocean. Try your hand at bartering for items including hammocks, drums, knives and woven baskets.
Estimated Project Expense: $4990 U.S. plus $30 Registration Fee

My last question I promise! So we have about 10 suit cases no joke. I was wondering if I could pack in my suit case and leave it at boot camp. Also I am having trouble packing everything in a cardboard box. Then I got everything in one but the box was pretty big and I couldn’t really pick it up.

Matthew make sure it’s not one you have to plug in to blow up. Self inflating or one you blow up on your own is best.

I can’t find anywhere what size air up mattress we need to bring. I already own a full size would that be ok to bring or not?

This looks like something I would be interested in doing in the near future. Do you do this same trip every year or not?

Hey I have a camera but the only way to charge it is through an outlet in the wall, would there be a way to charge it? I also have a cheaper camera that runs off of batteries,would it be better to just bring that?

Matthew, You definitely need to bring the camera with batteries. Outlets will not be available at Boot Camp or on the field.
