International Mission Trips
We desire to encourage and equip people to go and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 18:19), both in our community and around the world! One of the ways we practically do this globally is by offering Team Trips.
Team Trips are usually week-long experiences where we share the love and hope of Christ by meeting physical, spiritual, and relational needs. Our short-term Team Trips partner with established organizations and long-term missionaries, joining alongside the ongoing transformation taking place, resulting in life change for those being served and in those serving!
