Mission trips
Dear friends, learn more to be
part of mission trips. Mission trips bring together the best of both worlds in
ways that communicate Christ’s servant love, prompt growth and ignite passions.
That’s work we want to be a part of!
Mission trips connect people
with what God is up to all around them, and teenagers are an important part of
what God is doing. Mission trips invite students’ faith to their fingertips,
allowing meaningful conversations about why service is essential to following
Jesus. Mission trips invite students to be fulltime participants in God’s plan.
Communities, too, are
participants in that plan. We know that every community – the ones we visit and
the ones we come from – have both strengths and struggles. By entering a
different village or city, we get an inside view of another context where Jesus
is at work. Alongside the real needs we’ve seen students meet, the people and
places we serve have also poured back into church groups. This mutual giving
makes mission trips much more than simple service projects. It changes
perspectives, shapes passions and alters pursuits. It opens students’ eyes to
the incredible possibilities God has put in front of them.
Mission trips equip and
encourage students to go home and love the communities they travel into every
day when they roll out of bed. And God’s mission for us is far more than a
trip. But we know, for many, living out that mission begins with a trip.
That’s why mission trips will continue to be our work and our passion.
