From July 18-29, McLean Bible Church(MBC) will serve in and around Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Our primary goal is to continue to support and facilitate Orphan Care initiatives through the local church.
UNICEF reports that over 5 million children and teens are considered to be orphans in Ethiopia. In 2018, the Ethiopian Congress banned adoptions by foreigners, causing many private organizations to close. This forced a new surge of vulnerable children into the streets.
The local Ethiopian church is uniquely positioned to help, and over the past year, MBC has been training, resourcing and developing a network of local churches to step in and be the solution through mentoring, adoption and continual service in existing orphanages! While in the country, our teams will be aiding this network of churches, and the volunteers they have mobilized, as they continue working in these areas.
