LET’S GO! WELCOME TO THE TEAM.
We have received your online registration and we are seriously jumping-for-joy excited to have the opportunity to serve alongside you this summer!
Use this toolbox and step-by-step guide as you get ready for your trip. Make sure you read it thoroughly and reference it often. You don’t want to miss any valuable information!

For individuals attending missions training ONLY and serving at their own location:
Step 1 : Raise the Funds!
It may seem like a lot to raise – and it is! But the good news is that it is not up to you to raise it all. God wants to be included in the process so that He can reveal his gift of provision to your team. The first step in the missions trip journey is to trust in God to provide the way and then get to work! In addition to your online fundraising page, we are providing you with numerous resources for getting started.
Step 2 : Submit Your Forms
- School Trip Participant Consent (hard copy required for school teams)
