Short-Term Ministry Trips
Short-term ministry trips connect God’s people and provide unique opportunities to serve the body of Christ. These opportunities help inform how we pray for churches overseas and how we see ourselves as part of the larger global Church. They inform how we praise God for the gifted leaders worldwide who are accomplishing His kingdom work.
