The Philippine tourism slogan is “It's more fun in the Philippines,” so for sure, while you work & minister, you will have fun getting to know Filipinos! NT4Teens is offering two options for summer 2025.
47440 Philippine Ag & Village 12 participants assigned The beautiful Philippine islands with their hospitable people are common tourist destinations, but few are going there to share the gospel. Some on these islands are religious but are still not sure of their salvation. As a team, you will work together on various construction/farm projects at the Mindanao Baptist Rural Life Center while you learn the history of how God has used this research farm to impact over 90 nations around the world. Spend time in local villages, learning about culture while sharing your lives & the Gospel through drama, music & kids classes. You might also get your hands dirty while helping on a local farm! Spend your day off visiting a local beach or swimming in a natural cold spring.
The Philippines is still a harvest field so come help us harvest in these areas. The Philippines is also becoming a harvest force. Through your ministry, you will help encourage the local churches in making disciples and becoming better senders. For each project, students & leaders will be divided into separate ministry teams of 4-5. For each group of 5 students (ages 14-17), there will be at least 1 adult leader (21 years or older). Adults leaders may be from the student's church or they may be recruited from former Nehemiah Teams participants. After teams are formed, adult leaders will complete pre-field leader training (via email/on-line). All participants will have preparation assignments before attending orientation at the Nehemiah Teams Training Center on June 5-9 in Mentone, Alabama. Following orientation, teams will be taken directly to the Birmingham airport from orientation to begin their travel to their final destination. At the end of the trip, participants will have an on-field debrief, returning directly to their homes from the Philippines.
After participants have been approved, additional information including specific information regarding travel, packing lists, payment and required travel insurance will be sent via email. Applicants ages 18-20 will not be accepted but will be asked to apply instead for a full summer Nehemiah Teams project.
