What kinds of children's ministry do you do?
We conduct children's ministry in conjunction with a construction trip or medical mission. A portion of the team spends its time leading a Vacation Bible School or other types of ministry. At other times, the entire mission is dedicated to the ministry of children or orphans such as the case with our of ministry with Orphanage #105 in Moscow, Russia.
What happens if I'm injured on a mission trip?
Insurance is available to assist and provide the care and transportation needed..
How far ahead do I have to reserve a spot on a mission team?
This depends on the trip. Some fill very quickly while others take longer. You should register as early as possible so you don't lose your chance. This is especially important when international airline tickets are involved for the team's travel. Pay close attention when a registration deadline is stated. These have to be respected.
What are the living conditions for the teams on mission trips? Are they very primitive?
This also varies widely from trip to trip. At one we may stay in a camp cabin or tent; at another we might bed down on a church floor; at still another we will be invited into homes. Read the information about the trip you are interested in very carefully. If you are still uncertain about what you are getting into, email Glen Allen or call him at 928-821-1073 to discuss your concerns.
Are there ever any mission teams that work in or near Flagstaff?
