Missions
Every year we send teams of students and leaders around the world. It's that time for our students to sign up and get their applications in!
In the last 20 years alone, we've sent out 1,518 students and 382 leaders on 122 trips.
This year our students are currently signing up for four high school trips during J-Term (Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, France, and Jamaica) and one junior high trip during spring break to Chicago.
These trips change the lives of the those we minister to, but also make an incredible impact on our students and leaders. One student told me that she loves going on the trips because the simple yet great love of God the people have in these countries makes her realize what is truly important in life. She feels that sometimes she is the one being ministered to!
Nancy Snook is our Missions Trip Director. She does an amazing job each year of coordinating all the trips and has the following prayer requests.
1. Wisdom for families as they decide about their child going on a trip
2. That each trip will reflect God well as we partner with organizations and missionaries
3. Team members to be willing to give up personal wants/expectations for the good of the team
4. God would begin/continue to work in the hearts of the people to whom we will minister
5. Airline costs to France will go down soon Isaiah 52:7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
