WAYS TO GO GLOBAL ON MISSION

We long to see key people in our church trade-in their life in the states to move into a global community that is not reached or resourced in the gospel of our Lord. We are not staffed or equipped to send folks ourselves, so we have compiled a list of groups we recommend for placing you in a global setting. Of course, we will be behind you as a church in prayer and financial partnership. If you are a member in good standing at DRC and want to go global as a formal vocational missionary, then let us know (talk to a pastor) and start researching the below groups prayerfully. This list is in no way an endorsement of everything each group believes or does, not to mention an endorsement of their staff. This is simply a list of groups we think partnering with would be strategic for missionary work.

YouthWorks’ purpose is to provide life-changing, Christ-centered youth mission opportunities. We create extraordinarily fun and significant mission adventures, targeted to the needs and capabilities of youth, ages 12-19. By crossing the borders of race and culture and by placing students outside their comfort zones, we find something wonder happens: God gets their attention. Without the distractions of everyday life, God uses YouthWorks to work in the lives of thousands of teenagers. By attempting to be faithful to our purpose, we find God is also at work in each of the communities we serve.
