COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Christian evangelism and ministry is a large part of The Lizzie Project. The love of Christ is shared and demonstrated as our short-term mission team participates in local ministry within villages, churches and hospitals. The Lizzie Project partners with WGM (World Gospel Mission) and the local Shalom Church in Choluteca. Shalom Church serves as a base for worship, Bible Study, Sunday School, crafts for children and outreach into the community. There has been opportunity to give training within the local hospitals on nursing techniques as two team members are nurses in the United States.
Work projects vary from year to year. The 2018 Team renovated a playground, sprucing up swing sets and building park benches. Other work consisted of building shelves, painting, organizing the administrative office and general repair of WGM facilities.
A sewing ministry provides colorful “pillowcase dresses” for girls and shorts for boys. Sewing apparel is done throughout the year by various women’s church groups and individuals in Georgia.
