Is there a way to take the plans you have already made and modify them using virtual platforms? Can you offer other services or resources from your church that would not otherwise be available?
What if you kept the proposed team intact and rallied them to redirect their time and effort to serve the same ministry in other ways? Could you involve more people who wanted to participate but were not able to make the trip?
What if you still raised the funds you were planning to raise and invested them in the ministry site you were planning to serve? What would it look like in this pandemic year to spend more of your budget on much needed food, water, or medical services in these disadvantaged countries?

Comfort lives with her parents, 5 siblings and 2 other extended family members in a four-room mud house with a thatch roof and dirt floor. It houses 10 people.
Comfort comes from a Christian family. Her father is a small-scale farmer who cultivates maize, rice and cassava to provide for the whole family. Despite his efforts, he struggles to produce enough to meet all their basic needs especially education. Due to the financial hardship, Comfort dropped out of school for about three years because they could not afford her school fees. With help from CHG, Comfort aims to get back on track at school and fulfill her dream of becoming a midwife.
