Inquire about the trip

Mission Discovery teams are needed to help restore hope. We will be partnering with local churches and other NGOs to reach affected areas and assist as needed. While many organizations are ready to move towards recovery and restoration, it will be a slow and lengthy process. We will serve the people of Puerto Rico with the help and leading of our partners.

What the Mission Trip Will Be Like

39524634831_150da48ba6_5k.jpg

Pummeled by two major hurricanes in the fall of 2017, the island lay in near ruin. Remants of Puerto Rico's "super blackout" – the longest and largest major power outage of our times – remain. Life remains tumultuous with limited access to clean water, school suspended, businesses crippled, and the need for healthcare far outstripping available resources. Partnering with local churches and other non-governmental organizations, Mission Discovery will concentrate its efforts on some of the most affected areas. Due to the mammoth scope of damage, recovery and restoration will be a slow and lengthy process.

Mission Trip Offered By Mission Discovery

Mission Discovery trips aim to help developing communities. Teams of volunteers build homes for families in need, love on orphans, feed the hungry, clothe and educate school children, provide medical care and empower churches to bring hope to their communities. The Mission Discovery Staff arranges food, lodging, and logistics so volunteers will be effective from day one. Each night we offer a worship service to provide an atmosphere to come together and reflect on what the volunteers have experienced during the day.

Open your eyes to a world waiting to be discovered. Since 1991, God has used Mission Discovery teams to transcend language and cultural barriers to bring hope and Spiritual awakening to those who need urgent help. Since its beginning, over 50,000 students and adults have served around the world with Mission Discovery. Today, that work continues stronger than ever!

Each year Mission Discovery staff gather partners for support. Because of its passionate donors, Mission Discovery is able to lower trip prices. We want everyone to serve on a mission trip, so our goal is to make them more affordable. Together, through the power of Christ, we can make a huge difference in the world!
