Here at Team Africa we have a team aim, This Aim is a basic aim that will make such a difference!
It is a very explainable aim but let us explain why this aim is so important to us as a team!
We are working in a orphanage for 4 weeks there is a lot of children who will want us to play for hours with them and no one else. we felt it is important to spend time with everyone from new borns to children to teenagers to the eldery.
To build a relationship with someone you have to learn about that person so we feel that learning about them and their culture will expand the relationships we will build whilst we are away.
We believe that you cant teach without first learning! So why not take this chance to teach and to be taught by the people we work with! What better chance to learn about the history of Sparrow Ministries and the History of South Africa than to learn from the people who live there!
We are going out to Africa to work and teach, we will meet many people and we feel it is important to experience the difference we are making in the lives of others whilst we are out there!
And our most important challenge is to leave a impact in the lives of the people we work with.
We do hope that this has explained our Team Aim more.
~~ Team Aim ~~
To spend time with both Children and Adults
To learn about both them and their culture
To teach and to be taught during our time there
To experience the difference our work is making in the lives of others
To leave a imprint on their hearts for years to come.
