Happy Child is offering a short term mission programme in Belo Horizonte, Brazil and in Recife North East Brazil. Over the years Happy Child has hosted short term teams from Holy Trinity Brompton, St Andrews Whitchurch, Latin Link and Crusaders. Short term mission trips offer the opportunity to
- Meet new people

- Witness the effects of the care shown to street children
- Contribute to that care given
- Have a better understanding of the issues concerning street children
In 2010 Happy Child’s Short Term Mission Programme will be from the middle of July until the end of September. The programme will provide an opportunity to learn more about working with street children and children at high risk as well as the chance for hands on involvement in their lives.
