Purposes of a Mission Trip
· Share the gospel of Jesus Christ.

· To share a portion of our resources with those whose needs are far greater than our own.
· Enable team members to live out their faith and to grow spiritually by sharing the Christian experience in a unique way.
· To affirm our need to share mutually and more fully our faith and our resources by crossing the boundaries of a culturally diverse Church family.
· To facilitate participants' involvement in faith-deepening experiences that will expand that person's understanding of the meaning of their own life.
· Educate participants about the impact their actions and decisions have on underdeveloped areas.
