We are still excited about the ministry that will take place in Ecuador, Kenya, India and Tanzania this summer. We pray that despite the fears of war and other world issues, God will prevail and continue to call His people to serve Him overseas this summer. We continue to monitor situations overseas with the help of our partners overseas (local contacts as well as missionaries) and sources from the Government. Side By Side, the Global Work Crew program, really strives for safety and security of all Crew members overseas, but it is only through God that this is successful. Therefore we continue to seek support in prayers from families and friends, so we can strengthen each other’s faith among our brothers and sisters in Christ overseas.
 
In any case of danger to the crew in travel we will cancel individual tours, with possibilities of either changing the tour to a later date or traveling to a different location in the world.
 
Please prayerfully consider serving overseas this summer through this important ministry, so that together with our overseas partners we may conquer all fears and lift up Jesus’ name throughout the nations. Spots are still available. For further information, please contact the Emma Kasiga, the Global Work Crew Director, at 1-800-65YOUTH ext. 250. And be sure to check out the Global Work Crew website for continuing updates and information at www.sidebysidegwc.org.
