Graceworks MISSION TRIP
June 1-11, 2025
Kenya
Mission/vision trips to the Graceworks Rwika Program is usually multifaceted and focuses on building relationships with the children and staff of the Graceworks community in Kenya. The main activities of our mission/vision trips usually include leading Vacation Bible School as well as other activities that help with the emotional and spiritual development of the children. Activities may also include sports, music, arts & crafts and drama, depending on the interests of the mission team. Occasionally Graceworks has specific targeted projects aimed at helping upgrade the Kenya program facilities. These projects may include brush clearing, fencing, building and painting.
