Long Term Missions

Become a Long Term Volunteer

Many of our partners request volunteers who can stay on the field long enough to become familiar with the local situation. This allows them to assume roles of responsibility that help the team move the mission forward. Long term service is also a time of reflection and personal growth that will change your life forever.
