Short-Term Projects:

If you have a passion or a gift, there is most likely a way to plug it into our ministry at Hippo Valley Christian Mission. That said, we know it helps to have somewhere to start.  So here are just a few ways that groups and individuals have found to get involved.

CONSTRUCTION/PAINTING/REPAIR

Many groups have helped erect church buildings, school buildings and houses at the orphanage.  If a team has experienced builders there is often a project that can use their expertise.  Also, building repair and painting is always needed, as well.

EVANGELISM

Revivals and youth revivals continue to be very successful in Zimbabwe, and it is possible your team could be involved in leading some evangelistic services.

PREACHER TRAINING/SEMINARS

Each year at the end of February, we help host a large gathering of preachers in Harare called the Zimbabwe Preaching Summit, and experienced preachers and Bible College teachers are always needed for this event.  We also can host seminars in Chiredzi for the Lowveld Preachers Fraternal. 

CHILDREN'S VILLAGE & HOME

There is always work to be done on the various buildings at Chiredzi Christian Children's Village and Home, and the orphans enjoy American teams spending time with them, teaching them, playing games with them, and sharing Christ with them.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOLS

With many schools and churches that work in unison, it is easy for us to host a VBS attended by hundreds of children, and is a wonderful opportunity to teach Christ, and share love with the young people of Zimbabwe.
