SHORT-TERM MISSION TRIPS
Pray for our team that will head to East Asia to do mission mobilization with local pastors. The team will have opportunities to engage with locals and make God known utilizing different methods such as teaching English, music, and sport outreaches to engage the local people. This team needs the Holy Spirit to guide their steps so they are safe and find those that will be open to interacting with them. Pray for them as they prepare and for all the little details to work out.
This team will be serving in Madrid, Spain, by partnering with our Global Partners, Carlos and April Trujillo, to lead a fun and engaging English camp for kids at their church. In addition to the camp, the team will host a community carnival where they will teach Texas line dancing and participate in local outreach projects—all with the goal of building relationships and sharing God’s love in meaningful ways. Pray that the team will bless the local church they partner with and that the Spaniards they interact with will have softened hearts toward our team and the church.
This team will partner with YWAM to build a home for a family in need in Mexico. This trip is an opportunity to serve tangibly while bringing hope through both action and faith. The family will not only receive a home, but will also hear the Gospel presented and displayed throughout the build. Pray for good weather, safety throughout the building process, and that the end result would be life-changing for the family as their physical needs are met and they experience God’s love in a real way.
This team will be traveling to Bangalore, India to serve with Asian Christian Academy (ACA). ACA is a large, multi-faceted campus with a variety of offerings, and this team will have the opportunity to serve across many areas—primarily by teaching in the school. Pray that what the team prepares will be just what the students need and for our team to bless the ACA staff.

This team will be partnering with LIFE Romania to share Christ's love with high school students through meaningful connection and outreach. The students that attend the camp will have varying knowledge of Christ- some will be believers, some will have limited or unclear understanding, and some will have never heard of Jesus. This camp serves as a great way to connect with students, forge healthy relationships, and share the one true Gospel. Pray for each student that will be at camp to leave knowing Christ greater than when they arrived.

Pray for our students to be servant-hearted during this trip and to learn more about God's heart as they care for the kids and families they serve.
