Health Considerations
Health conditions that could prevent a volunteer from
accepting this assignment
See above.
Factors that could influence the volunteer's ability to do
this job
The volunteer will be mainly walking, sometimes in high temperatures if in the summer and cold temperatures if in the winter. We will be walking a lot each day, so good shoes and good stamina is a must. People smoke a lot, so second-hand smoke will be an issue. Serbian food is very good, consisting of lots of meat, breads, fruits, sweets, and vegetables. We recommend that you drink filtered or bottled water.
Health care facilities available
There are adequate clinics and hospitals in the major cities with new equipment and knowledgable doctors. Any special medications should be brought with the team.
Travel, Location and Culture
Geographic Settings
Located across the Adriatic Sea from the boot of Italy and 2 countries up from Greece, Serbia is a country with a lot of natural beauty. The terrain varies from flat plains to rocky mountains. The climate in the summer time will range from the 70's to high 90's. Winter temperatures range from 0 to 40 with snow. Spring and fall typically have temperatures in the 50s, but occasionally revert to summer or winter temperatures.
Other (customs, clothing, shopping, etc.)
The Serbs are an open, frank and friendly people. They eagerly accept Americans, but distrust our government. Don't talk politics. People are generally not reluctant to talk about religious matters, and they are never shy to share their own opinions on any subject. Most Serbs believe in God and the key truths of Christianity. However, very few have ever read the Bible, and even fewer have a personal relationship with Jesus.
Available Housing
The teams will stay in an apartment, house or hotel depending on costs and the size of the various teams. FLEXIBILITY IS A MUST. TEAMWORK IS A MUST. PUTTING OTHERS FIRST AND BEING TEACHABLE IS A MUST. The same applies for every aspect of this trip. Be ready to serve and to meet with Serbs. You will find many people will welcome you into their homes and humble you with their generosity and friendliness. Some may dismiss you as crazy.
Mode of in-country travel
Car or public transportation.
Possible Visa/Passport Restrictions
none, currently a tourist visa stamp received for free when crossing the border into Serbia.
Type of Entry Visa Required
Tourist
Airport of Arrival
Belgrade
Final Destination Airport

Items/materials to bring to the field
Bring small gifts if possible to give to Serbs you will meet. We will discuss in further detail as plans are being made for your trip.
Additional information
Our vision is a rapid, intentional, and exponential spread of the Gospel and church growth where all Serbians have the opportunity to hear and respond to the Gospel and Christ in this generation. Our emphasis is on discipling Serbs to start small groups, and on reading the Word in Serbs' homes at every opportunity. Prayerwalking teams will provide invaluable prayer, information and contacts for our team to establish work in this segment where very few churches or evangelical believers exist. You can help carry the vital message and hope of the cross throughout Serbia to impact eternity.
If you would like to enlist a team and serve as the Team Leader for Job Number 92617, please complete a short Team Leader Information Form, which will be sent to the Field Contact for this job. He/She will contact you with more information. Please be patient while the field considers your request.
*If more than 1 team is needed for this job, please indicate how many teams you wish to lead.
