Madagascar Mission Trip July - August 2027
PMCH Youth are going to Madagascar in the summer of 2027.
We will be taking a small team out to work in Antsirabe which is in the middle of Madagascar.
Our Hosts
Joe & Icha work within their community doing many different projects- from agriculture, to schools work, to bee keeping, to church work.
As a team, we will work alongside Joe & Icha. They will run our team for the time that we are out in Madagascar, and we will learn from them.
Do you want to…
Experience God working in a different country?
Give time for God and be expectant for what He will show you?
Explore your gifts and be pushed out of your comfort zone?
This is not a Holiday!
As a team, we will work together to raise the money that we need to go.
As a team, we will meet regularly during the year before we go to pray together and plan fundraising activities.
As a team, we will go to Madagascar to serve God and expect Him to work through us to support the work that Joe & Icha do everyday.
Your Commitment
You will need to commit to raising half the money yourself (and not just asking your parents!!)
We will be raising the other half of the money as a team, so you will need to be available to help with fundraising events
Attend team meetings- these will be compulsory- so you will need to free up your time in order to attend
Still Interested?
You can apply by filling out this application form or email Youth Pastor Zoë for more information
