Go where the people are.

Every year, teams of young Adventists spend one to two weeks in a village, city or campus, serving needs and sharing Christ.

The conference trains. The mission sends.

A short-term outreach led by young people and planned with the local church. Teams from several countries work alongside local members and pastors, before and after the conference, and you can join without attending it.

A day on the field

  1. Morning worship

    The team starts with prayer and the Bible.

  2. Home visits

    In pairs, you go door to door, listen, pray with families and offer Bible studies.

  3. Service

    You help with what the community needs. This may be health care, a building project or work in a school.

  4. Bible studies

    You return to the homes that asked for more.

  5. Evening meetings

    The community is invited to hear the gospel preached.

  6. Team report

    You share what happened, pray for the people you met and plan the next day.

Four kinds of mission field

  • Rural communities

    Towns and villages where a visiting team can strengthen a small local church.

  • University campuses

    Students reaching students, with seminars, small groups and personal Bible study.

  • Cities

    Literature, health outreach and public meetings in busy neighbourhoods.

  • Health missions

    Doctors, nurses and volunteers offering free care alongside the gospel.

Questions people ask

Do I need mission experience?

No. Each site has a team leader and a set program. You will be trained before you go and supported while you are there.

Can I choose my site and dates?

Yes. When sites are announced, you choose the one that fits your schedule and apply. Our team confirms your place.

What does it cost?

[Short answer on fees, travel and accommodation, to be confirmed.]

Can I join a mission and also attend the conference?

Yes. Several missions run before or after the conference. You register for each one separately.

What if the site is in a country I have never visited?

That is part of it. Teams are made up of people from different countries working together.
