As children of God, we are to, “…. proclaim His salvation day after day. Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous deeds among all peoples.” (1 Chronicles 16:23-24) We are also directed in the parable of the good samaritan, to offer aid, comfort, and encouragement to this hurting world. The Grace Missions department was created to do both as we take mission teams all over the world in support of Grace International missionaries.
In 2024, we will take teams to Spain, Uganda, Argentina, India, Mexico, and God-willing Ukraine. These trips are designed for both first time and experienced mission team members. Our goal as we travel to these locations will be to serve those God loves; physically and spiritually. Activities from past trips include light construction work, leading vacation Bible school programs, assisting newly planted churches, feeding and encouraging the needy, offering medical and dental assistance, and witnessing through street evangelism.
The fee for the mission trips listed above typically runs from $700-$950 based on the length of the trip and the various expenses incurred. The fee includes in-country housing, meals, transportation, and projects. This does not include airfare.
We encourage you to pray about which trip God might be leading you to take. For more information, contact us at [email protected].
SPAIN
April 25 - May 4
Visiting spiritually impoverished communities in the south of Spain, this team will join with a local evangelical church by participating in evangelical outreaches to spread the Good News of Jesus. Additionally, this team will be involved in repairing and painting local churches, and will spend time with Spanish youth, encouraging, teaching and ministering to their needs. Europe has grown cold to the gospel, and our team will help bring the light of Jesus to the darkness of disbelief.
MEXICO
June 13 - 20
This dynamic mission involves traveling to multiple locations within and surrounding the city of Queretaro, Mexico. The team will minister to children who live in one of the neediest communities by doing a Bible lesson, making and giving out food to families, playing games with them, and praying for them. Next, the team will spend a few days visiting a safe-home for homeless teens and young adults. There they will cook breakfast for them, do crafts, and give the salvation message. Additionally, the team will get to participate in projects and serve and attend local church services.
UGANDA
June 30 - July 11
Outreach is the focus of the Uganda mission. From 3-night crusades in the nearby village, sharing testimonies to college and high school students, to leading a Vacation Bible School for close to 600 children, this team will impact many. Through Bible lessons, crafts, worship and participating in the many beautiful cultural aspects in Uganda, the name of Jesus will be proclaimed.
Saenz Peña, ARGENTINA
August 28 - September 7
This team will be traveling to a new location where the gospel is newly introduced but the hunger for it is rampant! Ministering at newly established churches and feeding kitchens, the Good News will be shared to every member of the family. Additionally, this team will plan a kids outreach event where they will cook and feed the children of the community, share the gospel, and teach them praise and worship choreography.
INDIA
September 26 - October 6
By visiting Northern India, this medical mission is essential in the lives of over 2,500 students who otherwise wouldn’t receive medical care. The team travels to 5 Christian schools and a seminary to perform wellness visits, eye exams, and dental hygiene check ups. If you are a doctor, nurse, PA, physical therapist, dental hygienist, optometrist, or simply someone who loves children and can help the medical team, join us on this important trip. There are also opportunities to participate in devotionals with the seminary students as well as attend local church services in the community.
Mar de Plata, ARGENTINA

With a new church being planted every month in various communities and neighborhoods, this team will join the current efforts to reach the Argentine people with the Good News. Helping establish feeding kitchens, ministering to parents while their children are doing a Christ-centered arts and craft, and painting the refurbished locations where church is being held are all a part of this short-term mission.
MEXICO
December 6 - 12
It is truly more blessed to give than to receive. Bringing the Spirit and joy of Christmas to families in need is what this trip is all about. The team will feed, minister, and give out presents to over 100 kids living in poverty, safe houses, and single mothers. Also, this team will assemble and provide hygiene bags to the homeless men community in Queretaro, Mexico. Spreading the love of Jesus and the story of His birth while bringing a smile to a child’s face leaves this team more blessed than ever.
