Short Term Missions

Making a difference now.

EVC Global Ministries offers many short-term missions opportunities throughout the year.

Short-term mission trips are lead by church members and are a great opportunity for anyone to work in other countries or to minister in the inner cities of our own communities to bring the hope of Jesus Christ to all.

Short-term missions opportunities are open to students as well as adults. Below are some examples of these. Please contact the church office to find out more, or visit our calendar/event page.

Tijuana - June 2007 :: View Photos
	Thirty team members from EVC went to Tijuana in June of 2007 to minister to the people and help build Christ’s church. During the trip, the team members put in long hours of loving service. We joined together to help complete construction on the bible college we had began the previous summer. We were able to go into the poor neighborhoods of Tijuana and invite children to come to our afternoon VBS that our team members offered each day. During the VBS time children were fed lunch, played soccer, did crafts, heard the gospel of Jesus Christ claimed and participated in worship together. The team joined together with the local church to invite neighbors to come and worship together and hear from God’s word each evening. Eternal relationships were built with these children and with this church in Tijuana. Highlights of the trip included late night tacos at the nearby street stand, a trip to Rosirita beach on our final day and a powerful time of sharing with one another of how God was working in our hearts that night followed by a great time of worship together as we prayed together out over the lights of the city from the hillside. God moved in each life in a powerful way and thirty people returned from Tijuana changed forever.

	A team from our church traveled to Ethiopia for several days to minister to the children and adults of the poverty stricken area.
