As we've hosted short-term teams over the years, we hear the same story over and over: "This has changed my life." But is it just about providing an exciting experience for youth groups? We don't think so – and we're passionate about providing real ministry opportunities to real people, doing everything we can to empower you to make a lasting impact.

The Value of Short-Term Outreaches

Short-term missions trips change lives! Over and over we have seen young people who have participated in past trips return to their home churches on fire for the Lord -- and that fire is contagious. Whether you come with us for a few days or a couple of months, God will use you mightily.

•  Short-term outreaches strengthen long-term ministries.
•  Short-term outreaches can have a profound effect on the lives of young people.
•  75% of today's major Christian leaders made a commitment when they were between the ages of 12 and
    17 years old. God wants to call young people at an early age!
•  Short-term outreaches produce long-term missionaries: 80% of all missionaries have had previous
    short-term missions experiences.
•  Short-term outreaches teach us about servanthood.
•  Short-term outreaches expand our worldviews.
•  Short-term outreaches help us evaluate our own culture.
•  Short-term outreaches produce real, lasting fruit in the nations where ministry takes place.

 

But don't just take our word for it – read stories from people who've been on previous mission trips with us.
