SPIRIT OU RELIEF MISSIONS combine volunteering with cultural and entertaining activities. Each day participants volunteer in settings with work that is appropriate for older adults (+60). A Relief Mission is not a “vacation” or a mere tour of a community. Volunteering provides important assistance within the community and is a crucial part of the program. All Mission members are expected to participate in every part of the program.
