Pre-Packaged Mission Trips

Give Your Students a Week That Shapes Who They Become

Pre-packaged trips are weeklong summer experiences for middle schoolers and high schoolers. You’ll be amazed as you watch your students step up to lead as they work with our Community Partners and have opportunities to be part of the daily programming. Everything on the schedule is designed to build their faith as they connect to God and serve others.

As a trip leader, you don’t have to do it alone. We set you up for an impactful week by providing lodging, meals, snacks, hands-on service, programming, and on-site support from Community Hosts.

It’s so much more than a mission trip. It’s a time for leadership opportunities, spiritual growth, and selfless service. Your students will see that God can use them right now to make a difference in the lives of others.

Youth Testimonies

"My faith became stronger from my mission trip. I stepped out of my comfort zone and now I'm willing and able to share my faith with others a lot more. I am more proud of who I am in Christ."

"After my mission trip, I see hardships of others more intense. I look at things differently and notice people around me that are going through a tough time"

"Our youth group became so much closer on our mission trip. When we came back home, some of us started a group where we go out in the community and help in nursing homes, or do little projects locally to help people."

"The trip had a big impact on my faith and how I view God. I understand His grace and feel more grateful for what I have. I look at the world and the people around me with a different set of eyes"

“I felt a whole new experience of helping different people and putting myself into their shoes and showing them God’s love."

Why YouthWorks?

For more than 30 years, we’ve watched extraordinary transformation unfold again and again. Hesitant teenagers transform into confident problem-solvers, quiet students discover their voice advocating for others, young adults grow resourceful, resilient & adaptable community building skills.

We’ve seen tens of thousands of students participate in serving communities through the years, and we’re committed to continuing to create experiences that empower young people to love their neighbors.

What Youth Leaders Are Saying

‘The quality time I get to spend with them on these mission trips helps me build deeper relationships than I could in one year of Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights.”

“Once you arrive on site the staff handles all of the details of the week. This is probably my favorite part about YouthWorks because it provides me with an ample amount of time to spend with my youth.”

“Youthworks staff did awesome assisting us through the process of preparing for our trip with a great attitude and helpful advice.”

“By having a year round presence in each community they serve, their mission trips are never about “saving” a community.”

 “YouthWorks creates great age-specific programming that resonates with my students.” 

“When I’m on a YouthWorks trip I feel I am not there to fix everything that is broken in this community, but I am coming alongside the great work God is already doing in that community.”

“Each YouthWorks trip leaves our youth and adults deeply bonded with the community, each other, and God.“
