Philippines Team
Join us in making a difference in the Philippines! Eastside will partner with TASA Cup of Hope who is caring for the abandoned street children of Manila by feeding, providing basic medical care, dental care, and education assistance to the street children in Manila, Philippines. Many of these children are victims of abuse by their own parents or guardians, are victims of human trafficking and left to beg for money on the street. Our team will partner with local healthcare workers to provide essential medical services. We are also partnering with a local church to evangelize to a village that desperately needs to hear the gospel. Our mission includes light construction, medical clinics, and VBS for the children. In the evenings, we will shift our focus to sharing the Good News of the Gospel through evangelistic crusades. These gatherings will offer the children and their families a chance to hear the message of Christ’s love and salvation. Through music, drama, and preaching, we will proclaim the hope and joy found in a relationship with Jesus. Your week will end by visiting some of the renowned beaches and enjoying this tropical country. This mission trip is not just about what we can give, but about experiencing the heart of God for the poor and broken. You will return forever changed, having witnessed firsthand the power of love in action. Sign up today and be part of a movement that brings healing and hope to the Philippines.
