NT: Philippine Agriculture Team Bicol (2027)

Description

Work hard to produce a harvest! This is a motto of many farmers… as a “mission farmer” this summer, you’ll be planting more than just physical seeds! Spend your days working on a research/demonstration farm in the tribal areas of the Philippines. While working alongside national and tribal partners, you’ll learn practical ways to help develop the countryside through simple yet practical farming techniques. Your weekends will be spent in local communities, sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ… working alongside the local church and tribal missionaries through training in evangelism & missions. You will also participate in a youth event to build friendships and share the gospel with local young people.

Your first stop will be a joint orientation with other Nehemiah Teams at the Nehemiah Teams Training Center in Mentone, Alabama. Learning the skills needed to carry out your assignment as well as team building will fill these first few days. Your team will fly to your final destination for the summer. Following your summer of ministry, you will return to the US for a joint debrief… sharing all God has done over the summer. Participants must commit to the entire program from orientation through debrief.

Other Requirements

Nehemiah Teams – An 8 week summer opportunity for students over the age of 18. Nehemiah Teams train prior to service in Alabama and return to Alabama at the end of the summer for debriefing.
