When most people think about New Orleans, one of the first things that come to mind is Hurricane Katrina that hit eight years ago. After the hurricane, the state of New Orleans has come together to rebuild the city and community which was once lost due to the wreckage from the hurricane. Through all the devastation, Adventures in Missions has been working in New Orleans to help be a part of bringing the city back to life. New Orleans is an amazing place to do ministry. Through our work and partnerships over the past eight years, we’ve established some amazing relationships with various ministries locations such as Holly Grove, Gentilly, and Central City. Though the majority of construction and relief work from Katrina is complete, there are still relationships to be built and stories to be heard. In New Orleans, your ministry may involve opportunities to work with children through Jesus Project Ministry, do service projects for Bethel Colony South and St. Paul’s Homecoming Center, as well as being involved in the homeless community. There are always things to be done, stories to be shared, and prayers to be prayed for the people and community of New Orleans.

Is God calling you to be a part of the ongoing ministry that is taking place in New Orleans, specifically this summer?
What role can you play in being the hands and feet of Christ in a city that is searching for hope and restoration?

  1. Dear Executive Director,
    I am pastor Onkoba from Kenya,fellow-shipping under a shade with 21 members.The lord spoke peacefully in my heart and gave me a responsibility to serve Him and the community in Kenya.I started to serve Him 10 years as at now.I have given my life unto the Lord to use me as a vessel to His Holy work.As i walk daily to serve my community,i meet many challenges especially for the orphans whose parents are dead .It took me time to think of what shall i do about these situation,finally,i talked with my wife and prayed to God to give me direction on what to do.The Lord spoke to me to gather these orphans into one place to and be their father by caring them,thank my deceased father for supporting me so much to have this orphans under my care.I have so far 31 sickly and healthy orphans together.
    They need the basic needs like a home where they stay permanently,they need food,they need school fees,uniforms,books,clothing ,health and others.When this orphans becomes sick as most of them are prone to sickness,the government health facility is far from where they stay and thus needs traveling or any means to save their lives by fast movement to a health facility.
    REQUEST
