Mission Trips
- A mission trip is an exciting, engaging active experience in which faith is put into action.
- Participation in a mission trip offers you and your church group a chance to give your time and talents to learn, share, worship and serve as a partner in a community of need.
- When your group decides to participate in a mission trip, you can choose from literally hundreds of opportunities around the world. There should be an opportunity to meet almost everyone’s needs, interest, ability to travel, budget and time.
