Why Mission Teams?  We believe the great command to go and make disciples is a command to every Christian.   This is something that many Christians desire to do, but don't know how or where to get started.  We are here to make that possible for you. 

​

International Missions are reported to be "life changing" by 75% of people who attend one according to a Barna Study on Evangelical Christians.  There are no other "events" the church does that report higher than 75% of participants calling that event "life changing".  

​

Why Teen Missions?  Of even greater significance, teenagers who experience an international missions trip before they enter college are 4 times more likely to stay connected to the church after graduating high school.  That is 400% more likely to remain in church compared to their Christian peers who don't experience an international mission trip.   Let that number sink in.  400 percent.   This is why we are so passionate about teen missions.  We work hard to make mission trips a real possibility for any teen who wants to experience missions.  Our goal is to pay for half of one mission trip for any junior or senior in high school who wants to join us on one of our international trips.   Not only are we helping build the kingdom by leading people to serve in the mission field, but we are strengthening this younger generation by engaging them in missions before they ever graduate high school.  We are only able to do this with the generous support of our donors who believe in what we are doing.  If you are able to help us make these teen mission trips, your support is greatly appreciated and much needed.

 

In one way or another we all have a God-ordained responsibility to leave our comfort zones and work to lead people to Jesus.  While we need donations to do what we do (as do all mission organizations), we want to be clear: sending money is not always the answer.   Nor does donating to missions automatically relinquish our responsibility to do what Jesus said, "go and make disciples."  We believe that every Christian needs to experience a true mission trip at some point in their Christianity (and in our opinion, the earlier the better).
