Upcoming 2012 Mission Trips

Plan on joining us for a mission trip this year. Serve God in a different culture, share your faith in a challenging new setting, and expect a life-changing experience.

If you are interested in one of these opportunities, please contact us now so that we can provide you with additional information. This will not commit you to the trip, but it helps us to plan and to determine levels of interest. Please let us hear from you soon!
