Summer Mission Trips Dear Youth Pastor, Have you spent months trying to come up with new and exciting ideas for summer mission trips? We all want to take our students somewhere, hopefully meaningful and life changing. Well, Youth EE has some of the best summer mission trips anywhere! The article at the opening of this section ( Introduction ) spells out all of the details, but permit me to give you a few broad strokes. Each summer Youth EE sends dozens of Youth Pastors and their students all over the world. These are teams that have been trained in the Youth EE training. If you haven't yet been trained in Youth EE, we can help you, so by next summer you can travel with us. These teams travel to foreign countries that already have Adult EE in place and who desire to start Youth Evangelism Explosion. You and your team of Youth EE trained students would actually conduct Youth EE clinics in these countries, with you teaching the clinic and training national leaders to take over when you leave. Your students will actually sit in the midst of the Youth Pastors and leaders in the host country. Because they are trained, they will be able to work directly with the Youth Pastors and leaders during the clinic; helping them to learn, practicing with them, helping them to write testimonies, and doing some of our famous skits that aid in the learning process. During the afternoons or evenings (depending on the country) you and your students will take the clinicians out on “On-The-Job Training”, showing them how to share their faith. The greatest thing about Youth EE mission trips? When you get on the plane to fly home, instead of the ministry and its effects stopping, they are just beginning! The work goes on because Youth EE is a multiplying ministry, not an addition only ministry. By training Youth Pastors and leaders, when you return to your home church, so do they. And, they are now equipped to train students in their home churches. If you were to train 50 Youth workers at a clinic, the long-term power of your mission trip would be to see Youth EE launched in 50 churches, after you leave! Another great advantage of Youth EE mission trips is that every one of your students, by virtue of going through the Youth EE clinic in that country, would become Youth EE certified Teacher/Trainers. That means you will have equipped them to launch and lead a Youth EE ministry no matter where they go in their future-another long term effect. When you think of the places your students will go in their future, think of the powerful long term impact this training and certification will have in their lives and future ministries. If a mission trip like this interests you, contact us and let us help you get started!
