113517 Team of 5 (Prefer 2 guys/3 girls) 2 girls assigned + 2 guys assigned
Field expense: $3171 plus round trip airfare, immunizations, required travel insurance, passport & visa costs, etc.
Team needed who love exercise, sports, dance & coffee. Work out weekly at a local cross fit gym to meet & develop relationships with the young Circassians that frequent the gym. You will also spend 4-6 hours a week studying Arabic.
The Circassian people came to this country about 150 years ago after being driven from their homeland in Southern Russia. They have prospered & earned a reputation for honesty & integrity. They love art, dance & sports. Many will speak English. It's our desire that you will have opportunity to learn Circassian dance. You will receive invitations to play soccer, attend wrestling matches, go hiking, etc. Be prepared to accept frequent invitations to drink coffee or tea. Be prepared to share the Gospel anytime, anywhere with anyone. Athletic ability or experience playing sports aren't as important as a willingness to talk with people.

FOR ALL ASSIGNMENTS, your first stop will be a joint orientation with other Nehemiah Teams, learning the skills you need to carry out your assignment. You will then travel to the field to spend your summer carrying out the task you've prepared for. At the end of the summer, travel back to a joint debrief, sharing all that God has done. It is required that all participants attend orientation & debrief.
