TRUST IN HIM AND HE WILL ACT


3 Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. PSALM 37:3-5

GO TRIPS AT UNION UNIVERSITY provide opportunities for students, faculty, and staff to join ministry partners in making Christ known. It is our prayer that your GO Trip experience will lead you to trust God’s power and providence, pursue faithfulness, and delight in the Lord as you wait expectantly for Him to fulfill His purposes among the nations.

WHEN Even amidst uncertainty, there are plenty of opportunities to GO and make the gospel known this year. During Spring Break, May, and over the Summer, we are looking forward to sending students to serve, grow in their faith, and make disciples.


2021 GO TRIPS SPRING BREAK Spend your Spring Break being challenged, encouraged, equipped, and mobilized from right here in Jackson. Learn about God’s Word, God’s world and God’s work, engage in ministry, and prepare for future ministry opportunities.

MAY (7-10 DAYS) Start your summer by working with a team alongside GO Trip partners. Serve and support their ministry, share the gospel, and make disciples as you learn how God is at work in the world.

SUMMER (8 WEEKS) Spend your summer living and working as a team alongside GO Trip partners. Build relationships, share the gospel, and make disciples. Learn about church planting and how to intentionally engage the lost in your community.

“I was really excited about going on an international GO Trip in order to get a picture of overseas missions. However, being redirected to Utah meant I was able to practice developing relationships, sharing the gospel, and connecting people to our partners without the language and cultural barriers. Even though I was here in the U.S. and it was only two months, God helped me see the work He is doing among the nations.” ASH CIOTO
