Short-term Summer Trips

Have you ever wondered what life looks like on the other side of the globe? Have you had the desire to do something that felt bigger than yourself, to step out of your everyday life and meet the real needs of people in other parts of the world? It might feel daunting or nearly impossible to figure out how to do it on your own, but what if you didn’t have to work out all the little details? If you could simply join a team where all the logistics have been worked out, would you go? Well, here’s your chance!

Our mobilization team at WGM has created four short-term trips to different parts of the world to give you the opportunity to participate in what Jesus told the disciples, “Go and make disciples of all nations” Matthew 28:19 (NIV). All the details have been worked out and team leaders are waiting for you to pray, commit, and prepare for the place God might be calling you. Check out the trips here. Then click the link under each country to find out all the details, contact team leaders, ask questions, and apply. We want to help you get to the place God is calling you!

One team traveled to Kenya last summer to explore medical missions. Here’s what some of the members had to say afterward:

“Kenya challenged, encouraged, convicted, and inspired me. God is at work there and I can’t wait to see how He will use this amazing experience as I follow His plan for my life.” —Kaitlin, 18, Lancaster, OH, Pre-med Student

“After encountering a variety of healthcare institutions and experiencing many environmental challenges, I have been personally challenged to seek God’s clear direction in where He might want me to serve, and going forward, to focus on why we do things and not what it is we do.” —Mary, 29, Zanesville, OH, Family Nurse Practitioner

“I met amazing people who love and serve Jesus in so many different ways and was encouraged in my own walk with Christ and what He wants for my future.” —Ashley, 28, Zanesville, OH, Nurse
