International Mission Trips

Plans for International Mission Trips are under consideration. When more information is available, it will be uploaded here.

WHEN:

TBA

WHO:

We hope to take a small team of graduate students involved with MCGrads. CCC staff members may serve as team leaders. The MCGrads team, once in-country, may join with a national Campus Crusade for Christ team (made up of national and American staff) there.

WHERE:

TBA

WHAT:

Over the years, a number of one-week mission trips from the U.S. have been made internationally and resulted in life-changing experiences for university students. A number of student leaders have come to Christ as a result of their interaction with the visiting Americans. Typical activities for mission team members may include conducting conversational English workshops, speaking in university classrooms in their academic areas of expertise to create interest and open further opportunities for meeting university students, and participating in cultural exchange events, where one can not only share about life in the U.S. and as a university student, but also share personal testimonies and faith in Christ. Many Nationals speak some English, so activities will usually not be dependent upon translators.

MINISTRY TRAINING:

We will provide some training for the MCGrads students on the team prior to the trip. Training will include things like cultural sensitivity, how to share the gospel, some basic follow-up content, how to communicate your personal testimony, and other ministry skills.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

If you are interested in being a part of such a Mission Trip, please email us at mcgrads@umich.edu. It will be an immense help to us for planning, to know who is interested.
