We will fly to Addis Ababa and then travel to a remote area in Southwest to hold medical clinics.  Most of the people in these villages herd cattle, including children as they do not have an opportunity to attend school.  They have many diseases due to lack of clean water and poor sanitation.  

We are partnering with Global Hope Network International to provide medical care and education on wellness habits in 2 remote villages during the week we are there.  At the same time we will display the love of Jesus to this unreached people group.  We will also partner with Great Commission Ministry to share the gospel. Since our last medical outreach in October 2019,  it has opened the door for 30,590 to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. 

For this trip we desire: 
Physicians, dentists, medical students, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, physician assistants, optometrists, physical/occupational therapists, and non-medical helpers.

We have an eyeglass clinic, provide "The Shoe that Grows" and a counseling/prayer area on our trips. 

MPFC has a Covid plan to do our best to keep trip participants and our patients and partners safe and healthy. We will be watching country requirements closely. If we have to cancel this mission your application and funds will be moved to a future mission of your choice. 

All team members must be Covid-19 vaccinated to attend this mission trip. 

*Please note-we serve with established Ethiopian partners. The safety of our team is important to us which includes taking all necessary precautions for our team's safety. If needed, we will reschedule the trip. 

You will have an opportunity to try some traditional Ethiopian food to experience the local culture.  We will also be visiting a National Park for our tourism outing. 

Hope you will be part of our team!  For more information/questions regarding this trip, please contact us: [email protected]
