SPCC Short Term Mission Activities
SPCC has been sending out short-term missionaries since 1996. Most of the trips involve a construction element along with opportunities to minister in song, giving testimony and sharing scripture. The trips are usually 10 days to two weeks long and are throughout the year depending on the host countries availability.
The most exciting part of any of these trips is to see what God is able to do both in the 3rd world country and within our team as well. Everyone who goes comes back with an experience that will never be forgotten. God has not only called them to go but while away He has challenged them to grow by doing things that are out of the ordinary, by eating things that we normally wouldn't have, by sleeping in places we would never have dream of! All of these things are what makes our relationship with Christ much deeper and the desire to share about Him even stronger.
We pray that God will continue to call people to go ...would you be one of them?
