Mission Trips

Italy – a land rich with history, color, flavors, music, and more! This destination may seem like a great place to take a vacation, but there is plenty to do to further the Kingdom of God in this beautiful country. The people are warm and inviting and the landscape beautiful, but centuries of religious oppression has left its mark. Our…

The Andes Mountains jut out of the ground straight up into the sky, making one feel small and insignificant. They are so vast it is almost more than the eyes can behold. Our bus crawled slowly along the winding, steep roads, our mouths agape at the astounding beauty. And as I looked closer, I realized those were not rocks and…

Poverty Is a Spiritual Issue Recently, I wrote a blog about visiting our brothers and sisters who reside in a city dump in the Philippines, while serving with Convoy of Hope. This is where I began to discover that poverty is a spiritual issue. The poverty of soul is so much more prevalent than the physical poverty that my five…

JAMAICA “Yeah, Mon!” In beautiful Jamaica you will hear this warm welcome accompanied by a big smile! Jamaicans are relaxed, hospitable, and full of life. What a fabulous place to partner with what God is doing on this exotic island. Come serve our brothers and sisters in this warm, inviting, tropical setting with your hands, your heart, and your words.…

Poverty Is a Spiritual Issue In Motion Ministries partners with Convoy of Hope, leading some of their Field Teams on the short-term mission field. I had the privilege of traveling with Convoy of Hope to an island in the Philippines to visit a community that resides in the city dump. It was there I first heard the statement: Poverty is…

Welcome to Lampang, Thailand – the “last paradise” in this beautiful Southeast Asian country. You can expect to see horse-drawn carriages, lumbering elephants, friendly faces, and enjoy world-famous Thai cuisine. This city has relatively few visitors, making it feel a bit “undiscovered”. You will have the opportunity to share the love of Christ by volunteering your hard-working hands to build…

Tears ran down the cheeks of the elderly Chinese pastor as our team member presented him with a study Bible. The interpreter informs us that this is the answer to a decade of prayer. Whose life did this impact the most: the pastor, the thousands of Christians that he was leading, or our team member? The young Alaskan girl hops…

Your shirt is sticking to you, you smell disgusting, you’re bumping around in a fifteen-passenger van with seventeen people in it, and you’re in the middle of nowhere - You might be on a mission trip! These are just a few of the things Chris (my husband) and I got to experience in Costa Rica. And if you’ve ever traveled…

Short-term Mission Trip to Montana In Motion Ministries and You Are Worthy Ministries partnered together in the summer of 2017 to bring a women’s retreat to the ladies of Morning Star Baptist Church in Lame Deer, Montana. The Native women of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe welcomed our team with open arms and open hearts. God moved with such impact on…

Mission Trip to Rampart, Alaska “I have no clue what to think,” I thought to myself when I heard about Rampart, a village in Interior Alaska, accessible only by air or boat on the Yukon River.  Viewing “Fish Camps” along the way, we got a brief glimpse of life in Rampart as our team traveled the two-hour trip down the river…
