Soccer Initiative – Be a part of encouraging and equipping churches to develop God’s heart for the orphan. These efforts empower pastors and congregations to care for children and provide families for orphans and vulnerable children. One of the ways Manchester Christian Church is caring for the orphan is through the soccer initiative.
If you have a passion for soccer, you can use your passion in a soccer program that is designed to reach orphans and vulnerable children and prevent future children from being orphaned through practical life skills training.

HIV/AIDS – HIV/AIDS is still the greatest humanitarian crisis of all time, killing millions every year, and leaving millions of orphaned and vulnerable children behind. Your involvement in this PEACE trip will help empower churches in another country to care for those who are infected and affected with HIV/AIDS. These efforts provide local churches with powerful tools and simple training that focuses on prevention, treatment, care and support. Using the AIDS cube and the CHURCH strategy you will be able to do basic AIDS training.

You will also help churches test for water contamination, identify purifier sites, and install purifier systems.
