The mission of the church is to take the Gospel to all the world. One way we work toward accomplishing that mission is by taking short-term foreign mission trips. The goal of any trip is to encourage the missionaries and the people they are trying to reach with the Gospel while learning to work together as a team, stretching our faith by ministering in ways we have not yet experienced, and to watch the Spirit of God move in every aspect.
