Every January there is a mission trip to visit and participate in FOCI’s work in India. Usually during the second and third weeks of January, FOCI board members and other interested adults and teenagers visit Hyderabad and Khammam to visit our work, build relationships and experience the love of God through our partners’ services to the poor.

This was Rev. David Rowe’s 20th trip to India; Dr. George Longstreth’s eigth Medical/Surgical Work Camp, (plus two others by Dr. Susan Wolf); the sixth visit by Greenfield Hill Church members … the largest group ever – 34! … including a 10-person medical team with five doctors/surgeons and four would-be doctors.
