Helping Haiti Travel Scholarships

Our goal is to encourage urban youth to participate in service learning opportunities. With the generous support of our donors we are able to offer travel scholarships for youth ages 18-24 to join the December 2013 Haiti mission trip. The maximum available is $500 and only two scholarships will be granted. The deadline for submission is October 15. Please review more details and the application here.

Donate to support our urban youth travel scholarships. With every mission trip we set aside two spaces to encourage and support urban youth 18-24 to join us for this life changing experience. We believe that by serving, witnessing and being you become changed. Each participant is able to return home and not only share what they have experienced, but also learn how to use their mission experience to support their local community. We can only make this possible with the generous support of our donors. Please consider providing your support. Contribute what you can.

EMPOWER WOMEN AND YOUTH WITH COMMUNITY CORDS

Of One Body has partnered with Community Cords to support women in the Philippines while raising funds to support our mission work. The purpose of Community Cords is to empower impoverished women in the Cuatro Community of Manila by providing them with a source of employment and discipling them to raise God-centered families to impact future generations. Women are paid for each bracelet made which are then made available to organizations to raise funds for mission trips. Your purchase of a bracelet through O1B will help suppo null rt our Mission Travel Scholarships for urban youth to join us in Haiti this December. Each bracelet is $5 and $1.50 is added to your order for shipping and handling. Because we receive bracelets as they become available, we are not able to select colors in advance. Send us an email and we will do our best to select a bracelet with the colors you prefer. Your bracelet can be purchased HERE.

MISSION TO RIO

A combination of love, resources and determination accompanied a team of ten mission workers to Rio de Janeiro to serve in the favelas (slums). We thought the Pope's visit would bring more people to serve those less fortunate. It was unclear if this was the case. We witnessed many who were there to admire the Pope and when he was not in their presence they marched the streets waving their countries flags as a symbol of Christian unity.

Although a bit discouraged because the schools were closed, we took to the streets to search for the lost and the needy. With prayer we witnessed in the streets, served the children in Complexo do Alemo and created a community mural. We were escorted to other NGO's that need support and welcome the opportunity to return to support them.

This video will show the highlights, our Facebook page will give you the full story. Join us for next year's adventure.
