GREECE TRIP

Greece is a land where ancient history meets modern life, offering diverse opportunities for mission work across its regions. In Athens, the capital city, teams can serve among young people, immigrants, and refugees through street evangelism, food distribution, and local church support. In Thessaloniki, a city rich in biblical history as the site of Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians, there are opportunities for university outreach, urban ministry, and encouraging local believers. On the island of Crete, with its unique culture and traditions, mission work often centers on youth, families, and strengthening small congregations. The Aegean Islands, known for their beauty, also present needs among isolated communities and local churches that welcome outside support. Wherever the journey leads—whether bustling city streets, historic centers, or rural villages—mission in Greece is about walking alongside pastors and believers to bring hope, encouragement, and the love of Christ.

During your time in Romania, you will engage in a variety of ministry opportunities such as community outreach, children’s programs, evangelism, and practical service projects. You’ll also join local believers in worship and prayer, building long-term relationships that reflect the unity of the global Church. Beyond ministry, you will experience Romanian hospitality and gain a deeper understanding of its diverse culture, home to Romanians, Hungarians, and Roma communities.

By stepping into this mission, you will help bring hope and encouragement to those in need, while leaving a legacy of faith, service, and friendship. This is more than a trip—it’s a chance to make a lasting impact for the Kingdom of God in Eastern Europe.
