The World Race is an 11-month Christian mission trip to 11 different countries around the world, and it's not your typical missions experience. It's a way for twenty somethings =) to abandon a traditional lifestyle in exchange for a paradigm-shifting experience. Through adventure, ministry, community, and self-discovery, World Racers develop broken hearts that propel their hands to move for God's kingdom around the globe. And the best part of the World Race is it's merely the beginning of a greater life-long adventure...
India
With nearly a sixth of the world's population within its
borders, India is a country bursting with people and culture. Moreover,
it has a diverse array of religious beliefs from Hinduism, to Islam, to a
blend of folk religions and other faiths. While the country is on the edge of full economic development, it's still stricken with poverty and
privy to the crimes of human trafficking, forced prostitution, religious persecution, and more. So what will you do in India? Change it from the
inside out.
Nepal
Home to Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain, Nepal
literally sits on top of the world. In addition to adventurous
experiences you will have here, you will also visit widows and orphans
in their times of distress and protect the innocent who are prey to
human traffickers. This month of your World Race experience will
submerge your in a culture that is desperate for an encounter with the
living God.
Pioneer Central Asia
Ask God where to go and do what He tells you. It'll be one
of the most
adventurous and memorable months of ministry that you'll
have on the
Race. Thailand or Cambodia, or maybe to Vietnam, China or
Malaysia? God could lead you anywhere to unveil His kingdom.
Are you
willing to abandon this month on the Race to Him?
Thailand
With
nearly two million people estimated to be trapped in
prostitution, Thailand has become one of the most popular places for
what is called "sex
tourism." Men and women from all over the world travel
to this southeastern Asian country to violate young girls for the price
of a few dollars. In the midst of so much despair, there is such an
opportunity for hope and redemption. It won't be easy work, but Thailand
is sure to capture (and break) your heart.
Cambodia
28 years ago, Cambodia experienced one of the most
gruesome genocides
known to humanity, in which over one-third of the
country's population was
slaughtered. Still in recovery from their past, the
people of Cambodia
are thirsty for hope and yearning for a message of
forgiveness and reconciliation. Part of your ministry here will be to
act as a living example of the freedom Christ can bring.
Kenya
The Kenyan people are
colorful, musical, artistic and hungry for the love
of Christ. The Masai bush, the Nairobi metropolis, and the Kibera slums
all make up a
country that is culturally diverse, yet historically
unified. As a
new era dawns in Kenya, so does the Gospel of truth
and faith. By
meeting felt needs in the bush and in the city, the
World Race participants are producing
fruit and long-lasting ministries to carry on even
after they leave.
Uganda
From the Ugandan islands in Lake Victoria to the
base of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, the African
people share a common bond: the need for hope. Home
to Africa's "Big Five" animals, Uganda is full of wildlife, people, and
history, most notably of which is the recent explosion of news about the
Lord's Resistance Army and child soldiers. Through relational
evangelism, church-planting and discipleship, you will be a part of a
movement to further
the kingdom of God in this incredible region of the
world.
Pioneer Africa
Three times during your World Race experience, your
team will take a month to ATL (ask the Lord) for a new mission field. He
may lead you someplace in the middle of a buzzing city or somewhere
that can't even be found on a map. Either way, it's a time of listening
to the Lord's voice and following him with true abandon.
Romania
The northern regions of Romania are home to the
gypsy people. Though
strangers in their homeland and forgotten by
society, the gypsies are a
strong and vibrant people who embrace the light
of Christ in an
inspirational way. Here you'll teach English,
lead sports camps, live
life with the gypsies, and more.
Ukraine
Caught between its past oppression under the
USSR communist regime and the desire to be accepted by Western society,
Ukraine is a land of many ups and downs. Thankfully, there's hope,
light, and life spreading like wildfire throughout this nation. Is it
the kingdom of God coming in power? We think so.
Pioneer Eastern Europe
Another month to ask God where He might send
you. By this time in your journey on the World Race, you should be well
seasoned in hearing the Lord's voice. Moldova? Montenegro? Greece?
Where will you spend your last month on the Race?
