WHAT CAN I DO ON A MISSION TRIP?
Churches, families, organizations, and other groups are invited to be part of But God Ministries by sending a team to work in Jonestown, Mississippi. Mission trips are scheduled during the summer months for Saturday to Friday. During all other months, there are two options: Friday to Sunday and Monday to Friday. A team can plan a multi-purpose trip or focus on only one task.
When planning a trip please keep in mind the 7 SPHERES of But God Ministries.
