Interested in Summer Missions?

  • Los Angeles Urban Project (LAUP)
  • Global Projects Ghana, Turkey
  • Global Trek Thailand
Dates for 2021 have not been set.

(LAUP)
Los Angeles Urban Project
 

The LAUP Six-Week Summer Internship gives students a real-life experience of living out their values by sending them in teams to partner with community-based organizations that address the social issues of the city.
​You will live among the poor, go to church in urban communities, and live on a fixed-income comparable to the residents in their neighborhoods.
In the midst of this experience, you will receive teaching from a Christian perspective on the biblical values of service, justice, and compassion, as well as receive regular training in leadership, teamwork, and decision-making.

​This combination of hands-on experience and training will equip you to use your life to combat the social, economic, and spiritual challenges of our world.

Ghana
​Global Project

The Ghana Global Program is a five-week experience  living with a Ghanaian family, teaching and doing physical labor at a school (pre-K through 8th), and entering into the mutually transformative partnership between Ghana and the Adom Foundation.
​
Ghanaian Pastor Joseph Mante has nurtured relationships between a poor village outside Kumasi and the InterVarsity Greater Los Angeles region.  The result has been the formation of the amazing grace school, which now outperforms private schools while still serving children who could not afford to attend public school.

​Participation involves language learning in cross-cultural training, raising around $3,000 of support, and participating in orientation and debriefing activities.

​This is a great experience for anyone wanting to learn about international development, the history of race relations and slavery between the US and Africa, or ministry to the poor and marginalized.

Thailand
​Global Urban Trek

The Global Urban Trek sends students line and serve slum communities around the world.  You will learning about issues of justice, poverty, and spiritual warfare in the international urban context. You will be challenged in their discipleship, leadership, servanthood and spiritual disciplines. The Trek is designed to be a continuation of what God is already doing in your life and to help usher you to the next level of your journey with Jesus.

Admissions to the Trek are quite selective, including criteria such as previous cross-cultural experience, sophomores or older, etc. 

Turkey
​Global Project

God is at work in Turkey! We hope to utilize the Turkey Global Project both to water new shoots of growth and continue plowing the hard soil. We hope to 
*Encourage believing students living in a 0.2% minority Christian country
*Help disciple future leaders of the Turkish church in love for the Word, love for God, and love for others
*Build genuine friendships with Muslim students who may not have any friends that know Jesus
*Have the chance to share about their life with Jesus with a Muslim friend
*Help create and maintain momentum for the continued work of pioneering an IFES movement in a Muslim country
