Nathan Smith Ministries has been partnering with churches and parachurch organizations since its inception in 2004.  One of Nathan's greatest passions is for men and women who follow Jesus to serve the Lord in missions!  Over the past 15 years, Nathan has had the opportunity to preach internationally in Europe and Africa as well as various other parts of the world!  As a result, God has provided many friends along the way, and some include full-time missionaries serving abroad.

It is an honor to serve God in various parts of the world and we trust that the Lord is not only working the hearts of those that we serve, but also changing the hearts of those serving on our teams. Our desire is that every person that serves on a short-term trip with us will come home with a clear vision and a pure passion to serve right where they live. We also pray that they will have a desire to continue to support full-time missionaries through prayer and financial provision.

Finally, we believe that there will be a select few participants will feel a call to full time missions, that they might go to the ends of the earth to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ to those who need to hear!  We are genuinely excited to see YOU get involved in our mission. Come join a team or connect with our team members through prayer and financial support! Please take time to explore the appropriate links for information on our upcoming mission trips to the beautiful continent of Africa!

Trip Description & Dates: Early June 2010

The team that will travel to Kenya in late May - early June of 2010, will be visiting a local orphanage to work directly with children who have been orphaned by HIV AIDS. The majority of the trip will take place in Kijabe, Kenya at Rift Valley Academy, one of the premier schools on the continent!  Some members of our team may also have the opportunity to serve the Massai people in the Rift Valley and experience true tribal culture. During our stay, we will have the extreme pleasure of meeting incredible missionaries and many children who are always excited to meet new people. Our teams will also be teaching and sharing with the orphans and students, working on new facilities for a local hostpital chaplain, and overall encouraging fellow believers. This is sure to be an experience that you will never forget, including a 3-day safari during the wildebeast migration (ONE OF THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD!).
