Caring for Kenya Medical Mission trip 2027

Welcome to the registration for the Caring for Kenya 2027 Medical Mission trip. Building on the incredible impact of our August 2025 journey—where a team of over 30 missionaries partnered with the local community—we are excited to return to the Keera Seventh Day Baptist Church in August 2027 (exact dates TBD). Based in Kisii, Kenya, our mission will focus on providing essential care through a medical camp and a vibrant children’s Bible day camp.

Please be advised that all missionaries are responsible for securing their own passports, visas, and vaccinations, as well as covering all associated travel costs. Medical providers must provide their professional licensing information and upload a copy of their current, active license during this registration process for credentialing purposes.

Please note that these figures are subject to change based on current market rates at the time of travel.

I understand that it is my sole responsibility to obtain and maintain a valid passport for travel.

Because our mission concludes in August 2027, I understand that my passport must remain valid through at least February 2028. I acknowledge that if my passport expires before this date, I am responsible for renewing it in a timely manner to avoid being denied boarding or entry.*

I confirm that I either possess a passport valid through February 2028 or I commit to renewing/obtaining one that meets this requirement prior to travel.I do not currently have a passport and understand I must apply for one immediately to participate.

I further understand that while the Caring for Kenya team is actively seeking grant funding to potentially subsidize these expenses, such funding is not guaranteed. Should the team be successful in securing grants, I will be notified of any cost offsets that may be applied to my balance.*
