STCH Ministries International offers mission trip opportunities throughout the year. Our scheduled dates are below and additional dates may also be available. *Please note: Proposed dates are always dependent on how much interest there is in a particular week and the number of applications received for that week.
We specialize in…
- Tailoring each trip to the interests, gifts, ages, and skills of the people involved.
- Partnering with established ministries in other countries to maintain the accomplishments of each team.
- Stimulating and strengthening families by encouraging them to serve together. Special things happen when families serve together and younger children are welcome when a parent is present.
Our ministry is dynamic and constantly changing as people respond to God’s calling on their lives. Our greatest mission trip experiences happen when someone says, “This is my ability and passion. How can I serve God on a mission trip?” Others have served through:
- Medical and dental clinics
- Vacation Bible Schools and other children’s activities
- Orphanage visits and home visits of sponsored children
- Construction, repairs, and maintenance to orphanages and Christian schools
- Workshops on parenting, nutrition, sewing, or teacher training at Christian schools
- Bilingual volunteers are always needed!
