Short-Term Missions
Short-term mission trips provide special opportunities for Countryside members to come alongside our missionaries to provide encouragement and practical ministry help. They are also significant opportunities to learn more about God's work around the world and to grow one's passion for God's glory among the nations.
As a church, we strive to be involved in short-term trips that:
- Have been requested by our full-time missionaries or other ministries with which we are associated
- Will be a benefit to, not a distraction from, their long-term ministry objectives
- Are led by an experienced Countryside member
- Are comprised of team members who are already actively serving in the ways they will be serving on the trip
In recent years, we have taken short-term trips to China, India, the Czech Republic, Mexico, and the Dominican Republic. Most of our short-term trips typically take place in the spring and summer and are announced in the fall.
If you are interested in participating in a short-term trip, please consider:
- Are you an actively involved member of Countryside?
- Are you presently serving in a regular way at Countryside?
And then, stay tuned for opportunities to serve in similar ways alongside our missionaries!
