Time is running out to sign up for summertime mission trips through Loma Linda University’s Students for International Mission Service (SIMS) program.
As a Loma Linda University Health student, staff or faculty member, you are eligible to sign up for one of these incredible experiences. While participating in a SIMS trip, group members will be taking part in our global mission that enables participants to offer their humanitarian services and health care skillsets to communities throughout Malawi, Peru and Brazil.
The sign-up deadline for these two trips is this Friday, April 17.
June 17 - July 2, 2015
SIMS is excited to be returning to Malamulo Adventist Hospital in Malawi. This site serves as a Loma Linda University international field station, and it is one of the oldest Seventh-day Adventist mission hospitals, celebrating its centennial anniversary this year. While participating in this trip, students will have the opportunity to contribute to long-term development of the community by visiting clinics, holding health fairs, leading out in vacation Bible school and more.
June 20 - July 3, 2015
This summer features the first trip that SIMS has ever taken to Peru. Join the team as SIMS collaborates with ADRA Peru to hold health camps, nutrition workshops, emergency response training, vacation Bible school and so much more.
August 13 - 26, 2015
On this trip, SIMS will partner with Social Action Volunteers of the Amazon, a non-profit that will facilitate connecting with local Brazilians while reconstructing a church building that was built in 1985. In addition to the construction renovation, trip participants will help lead vacation Bible school, provide health fairs and lead worship in the local villages.
