A mission trip in your own backyard. Eight days packed with community engagement, spiritual growth, and reaching out to others.
During the program, participants and staff reside at the host church, cook and eat together, serve with local environmental and social justice organizations, and discern how they are being called into action in their own lives and communities through discernment workshops. Youth programs provide the mission trip experience without having to leave Canada, and for a fraction of the cost.
Our hope is that each participant and staff have an ‘aha-moment’ while at GO, serving others, breaking bread together, and having fun with one another, and can leave the program with an action plan on how they can act and serve with their own gifts and skills in their communities. In the past, GO Project participants have created community gardens, meal programs, and resolved to offer their time and gifts in various other ways.
Age of participants: 12-16
