Short-Term Missions

Send us your story...

Have you been on a short term trip to Guatemala in the last year or so??????  Write us and tell us how it impacted your life and how you enjoyed it!  We would like to start a new area that shares these “testimonies” with others in the hopes of motivating them to come on a team.  You first timers can identify with the fact that you just “don’t know what you are getting into” and there are always a lot of questions.  You can also share how it really turned out and what kind of an experience it was for you.  I know that these short term trips can absolutely change people’s lives! Will you help us to encourage others to take the step to have this experience?????  Send your testimony to nancy@servantministries.net and let others be blessed through your experience!

A group of 18 came from Community Christian School from Tallahassee, Florida.  This school does a lot of local outreach with their students and they take a foreign missions trip every two years.  This year’s trip included their juniors and seniors.  They had lots of energy and we took advantage of it and exposed them to a number of different kinds of outreaches. 

They helped with our Embrace program by filling the food bags and also helping at the actual meetings, which happened to be our quarterly birthday party.  They had a movie night up in a mountain village, had a youth event at the ministry center with the local youth, visited a mountain church, took a trip to the Mayan Ruins in Honduras, did some outreach with our refugees and lent a huge hand to our “Parasite Outreach”, to treat 35,000 children with a parasite pill. 

They were a huge help and had good attitudes and were always ready to lend a hand.  We pray that God did a special work in their hearts as they were exposed to foreign missions and the seed planted will product long term fruit in their lives.  It is awesome to see young people be impacted at the time in their lives when they are making (and will be making) decisions that will affect their entire futures!

SHORT-TERM TEAM DATES/AVAILABILITY FOR 2010/2011

Are you interested in bringing a team down in 2011? The below chart shows the team(s) already scheduled and dates that are still available.

I have been communicating with a few more groups that haven't set their dates yet, but want to encourage you to get your time slot set aside.  These short term trips can impact their participants in a dramatic way.  Take advantage of exposing your people to an opportunity to "experience missions"!
