Namibia 2006 - The Adventure Continues

During the summer of 2002, 42 people in and thru Christ's Church of Amherst traveled to Namibia to participate with over 500 believers from around the world in what is believed to be one of the largest short-term missionary endeavors ever, Namibia 2002 - The Transformation of a Nation.

In the summer of 2004 transformation continued in Namibia and also at Christ's Church, where we began a new chapter in relational partnering on a global scale with our very own Global Outreach effort, Namibia 2004 - The Transformation Continues. 35 people in and thru Christ's Church took part.

Although it wasn't a Christ's Church specific team, the G.O. 2005: Namibia team, in partnership with dancers from the Melissa Hoffman Dance Center in Hudson, NH, put 29 people back on the ground, furthering our relationships and serving side by side with our friends and partners in Namibia.

Plans are underway to return another Christ's Church team to Namibia in the summer of 2006. Veteran leaders from 2002 & 2004 are in place to once again lead our effort. Many of our friends on the ground in Namibia have been in touch with us, desiring our team to come alongside them in their efforts: Boniface and Saarah; Dieter & Joan; Brenda & Sylvia with Hopes Promise; and Pastor Stephan Nell with Feed My Lambs.

Sunday November 20th at 12:30pm we will have an informational meeting for anyone interested in even praying and thinking about going to Namibia next summer. Staying for the meeting does not obligate anyone to go, but will rather give us the opportunity to talk about the trip plans and to answer questions. I hope that you will plan to stay for the meeting and pray about joining the team for Namibia 2006 - The Adventure Continues.

  • Hi Colin, yes there are two services at 9am and 11am. The meeting will be after the second service. I imagine that we will have moved folks out and be able to start the meeting by about 12:30. It should last no more than an hour. It will be good to see you all.
