Although God has not called me to be a missionary, He has placed in my heart the desire to go on a short-term missions trip for a while now. I’ve always been really interested in missionary work, and have been involved in serving in my church my whole life. I want to deepen my faith and grow in my relationship with the Lord, and I believe this is a great opportunity to do so. I am particularly interested in going to a Spanish-speaking country since I speak the language. I think I would be able to connect better with the people there.

After reading through the detail of how this team will minister to the kids in Chile, my heart was burdened by God to go to this trip. Besides that, God might use this trip to let me see something more eye-opening that He wants me to see.

This coming summer will be my last summer before my senior semester in my pre-med degree and as someone interested in medical missions I feel led to this opportunity. My biology Professor recommended this Chile trip because she will be doing it and I’m excited to go with her.

I would like to go on the mission trip becasue i would like to share the Gospel with the people of Chile

My reasons for wanting to go on a Missions trip:
1) God has placed missions on my heart for some time, and I am taking this as a step of obedience.
2) I believe that as a Christian I am called to share the Gospel to all nations and a missions trip is a great way to take part in that.
3) I also think that going on a missions trip is a great way to push myself outside of my comfort zone and pursue personal spiritual growth.

I would love the opportunity to use my gifts to serve and show God’s love to others.

Because I know that God has called me to do more than just cheer others on who are doing what God wants them to do. I want to get in the fight and do the work myself.

The Lord gave me the amazing opportunity to travel with YOM to Europe last summer. That was my very first missions trip, and it helped me see that this is an area where I can serve in this season of my life.

I would like to go on a mission trip because I have a heart for sharing the gospel and for children. I have always wanted to go on a mission trip, but I have never had the opportunity. Attending PCC has given me so many opportunities, like this one, and I don’t want to take any of them for granted.

I’ve always wanted to go on a mission trip, but our church never went any however, we support a lot of missionaries and whenever they come and speak and I see their videos I feel like I should be out there at least once in my life.

I want to be a blessing and share the gospel with the Chile team as I did with last trip to Europe with the YOM. It was a great blessing for me, and I want to be a blessing this year as well.

I love serving Christ with other believers and I believe that this is an excellent opportunity for personal and spiritual growth.

I have always had a desire to travel to another country and assist with various ministries, particularly children’s ministries. I had applied to go on a MMO trip because I am a nurse, but it was full and Mrs. Jarrell told me about this one. I think everyone at some point should go on a mission trip to experience sharing the gospel and serving others in another environment. I would love to be a part of this team!

Over the last few years, I have had a growing desire to go on a missions trip; I was searching for opportunities in the past, but was not able to be a part of any due to financial reasons. When I was informed of this trip to Chile a few months ago, I was so excited and could not wait for the applications to open! So many people have invested in me and my spiritual walk growing up, and it is long past due that I share what Christ has done for me with others. While I do not believe that God has called me into full-time missions, I do know that the Great Commission is to be carried out by all believers; even if my main mission field is in the U.S. sharing the Good News with patients in hospital beds, I get so excited to think of how much can be done when two weeks are dedicated solely to sharing the Gospel with children and families in other countries who so desperately need it.

I love serving Christ with other believers and I believe that this is an excellent opportunity for personal and spiritual growth.

I would love to have the opportunity to on this trip in order to gain experience in witnessing to more people. I love to see different cultures, and how for each different place it is important to witness in the way that is best for those people. I am interested in continuing with missions after college. I want to do what I can while I am still in college to make a difference for Christ.
