“I feel like I left part of my heart in Tanzania - for the people and the animals”
- Sue B.
Walk hand in hand with local Christians doing God's work, learning from them, supporting them, and exploring what God is calling us to do together.
This visit focuses on spending time with LPGM's partners and the girls and young women they serve.
These partners include: The Safe House, Eripoto for Girls & Women (a safe house), and Mwangaza Education for Partnership (a safe school program that trains teachers, school administrators, and communities).
You will meet Tanzanian colleagues who have dedicated their lives to protecting and empowering young women and educating teachers and entire communities about the importance of women.
Why Travel with LPGM?
For nearly 30 years Lutheran Partners in Global Ministry has been building relationships that transform boundaries. We work together with global partners to listen, respond, and bear witness to local needs and priorities.
This is not a typical mission trip. It is transformational travel, where you'll have the opportunity to experience and learn from Maasai culture and people.
Through discussion with our partners and other group members, you will unravel complex issues relating to teaching, learning, public health, empowering girls and women, and building community.
You will meet girls and young women who are finding safety and emotional and financial support through our partners in order to continue their studies. Some of them are young Maasai girls who face challenges that you only read about. They have experienced these hardships and are overcoming obstacles. They are living proof of what determination can mean so they can be educated and change the world.
You will have the opportunity to worship with them, share meals with them, and play with them.

Sue B.
“I recently traveled to Tanzania with five others. It was an educational and very inspiring experience. The trip was well organized and gave us a glimpse of the culture and the work of LPGM there. We were privileged to meet those involved in working in the schools and safe houses, and talked with students in both settings."
Connie H.
“I just returned from a trip to Tanzania with a LPGM group of six women. The trip was well-planned and definitely exceeded my expectations. This was the third trip I took with LPGM. Each unique experience has broadened my world view and in doing so helped me understand myself. I witnessed the fulfillment of the LPGM mission to help improved access to education, especially for girls and women.”
