Volunteers Needed in Kenya, East Africa
Volunteers are needed for two projects sponsored by NC Baptist Men in Kenya, East Africa. Nyeri Baptist High School, an institution run by the Kenya Baptist Convention, needs teams to aid in the construction of a girl's dormitory and classrooms. Teams live on campus and enjoy interacting with the staff and students, who come from all over East Africa. The team works with a talented group of Kenyans while on the job site. We also need teams for the “Houses of Hope” project. This is a community service project, the aim of which is to help the Kenya Baptist Convention in their goal of starting 1000 new house churches. The team will build four houses in four days for needy families in villages in Western Kenya. Teams will also have opportunity to conduct children’s ministry and other outreach. Both of these projects can use teams year-round. To see pictures and learn more about these exciting projects, visit our website at:

2011 Honduras Dates Are Now Available
This has been a great year for our ministry in Honduras. Countless lives have been changed through our construction/evangelism teams. You can make a difference in the life of a Honduran family in 2011! Working in conjunction with a local Honduran congregation, our teams build houses for those currently living in the worst of conditions. Team members also have the opportunity to do evangelism through VBS, door to door, and prayer walking. We also work with evangelism teams and medical/dental teams. An on-site coordinating couple, volunteer house, vehicles, and Honduran support team, make this a very “doable” overseas project for any church. We are now signing teams up for next year.  For more information go to our website to check out this life-changing mission opportunity:

Teams Needed in Hawaii this Fall and Winter
NC Baptist Men has a partnership with the Puu Kahea Baptist Conference Center on the island of Oahu. This beautiful facility on the Hawaiian shore needs volunteer teams to do both maintenance and construction projects during the upcoming fall and winter months. Teams will also be needed next spring. The camp director will be glad to work with any construction/maintenance  team that might also wish to do evangelism or outreach ministry in the nearby community as well. Teams stay at the camp for $30 per person per day (includes lodging and meals). The camp has a van that can be used to pick up teams at the airport. For more information go to our website at:
