Testimonials from last year's selected applicants:
Testimonials from last year's selected applicants:
“This trip exceeded my expectations. I knew playing sports
with the kids would be fun. But the fellowship with the other
managers and the time we spent in the Bible in such a
unique place was incredible.”
- Ben Wright (Michigan Football)
“Being over in Zambia was, and always will be one of the most incredible opportunities in my life.”
– Shane Maloney (Kansas State Football)
“These children, instead of being left to die of preventable diseases or starvation, were given life. And I, who at first appears to have nothing in common with these children, (healthy, living in the United States with parents who love and care about me) was given life too. I was hand-picked to go to Uganda. And I was shown true life. I was shown a life characterized by servant hood. A life filled with selflessness and love and joy. A life worthy of Jesus’s sacrifice.”
– Katie Wilkins (Nebraska Women’s Basketball)
“I had a boy share the story of how he came to Rafiki with me. He came to Rafiki with many cuts on his head as his parents had been trying to kill him. He then shared about how he had come to Christ and even forgiven his parents. His whole story just left me completely speechless.”
– Scott Goode (Texas A&M Football)
“The Rafiki children’s faith is so strong and they’re prayers are so thoughtful and kind that I was in awe every single night of their faith in God.“
– Brittany Arlington (Florida Gators Gymnastics)
“Looking at what God has done with MOAM and the individuals involved, and will continue to do is amazing and without question deserves
praise to God.”
– Ryan Francis (Liberty University Volleyball)
“I 100% want to work in sports administration and this trip gave me a first-hand opportunity to combine sports and service, which is now an area I will pursue more aggressively when on the job hunt!”
– Joseph Kuykendall (James Madison Men’s Basketball)
The Rafiki Training Villages that MOAM’s Missionaries will be visiting perform two main functions. First, they provide living, medical, and educational facilities in African countries where there are many orphans and vulnerable children. Second, they train African churches to care for and educate their orphans and support their widows. The Rafiki Training Villages are operated by Rafiki Overseas Staff (ROS) and are assisted by national workers and short-term missionaries.
One of the many ways You will be providing assistance to the village during the duration of the trip is to assist with the Rafiki GAMES summer session. During these two-three week periods, the children of Rafiki are able to participate in activities focusing on Games, Art, Music, Enrichment, and Sports. The purpose of GAMES is to provide organized and creative activities for the children living in the Rafiki Villages, while they are on break from school. These activities are organized by the education director with the assistance of short-term missionaries. You will also be assisting with village upkeep, and other labor intensive needs of the select village.
