Why Go?
Christ calls His people to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19), and short-term missions are one way to answer that call. By stepping beyond our comfort zones, we follow Christ’s example of service and bring encouragement to other believers. This trip is not tourism. It is an opportunity to bear witness to the gospel and to live out your faith in a tangible way.
On this upcoming trip, we will partner with local Christians, serve practical needs, and share the hope of Christ. As we go, we expect not only to bless others but to be changed ourselves—learning humility, deepening our faith, and practicing what it means to be “doers of the word” (James 1:22). Come ready to serve, grow, and be part of God’s work to the ends of the earth.
