Mission Adventures is a short-term outreach program designed for youth groups. A Mission Adventures outreach combines the local church and the mission field for a short period of time with the hope of building long-term relationships between the two. This produces mutual strength and encouragement and is fruitful for both the host ministry and the outreach participants. Our goal for anyone who participates in Mission Adventures is for their personal relationship with God to be strengthened and their worldview to be expanded as they participate in God's redemptive plan for the world!

Maintenance-Free Missions

We at YWAM Nashville are committed to you and your team. Our passion is to take care of every detail so you can dive into the missions experience. Our job is to take care of the food, housing, transportation (overseas only), training, host staff, translators, sound systems, outreach supplies... etc. Since you don't have to worry about all the logistics, you're free to minister to and with your team. We'll do the work, so you can do the ministry.

You'll Have the Tools

Every team that goes on an outreach will receive training that’s relevant for the location. We use creative methods to train the hands and the hearts of each participant. All of our trips include a pre-trip leader’s manual that will help you prepare your team for outreach. It will include devotions, packing lists, and drama kits if necessary.

A New Perspective

So often, we notice a change in the participants' lives, even after a single week trip. We notice

  • A stronger relationship with God
  • Fresh gratitude
  • Concern for justice
  • Excitement about their destiny

We challenge participants to consider a lifetime commitment to world missions, whether at home or abroad.

What's your niche?

Our hope is for our participants to serve God and others in the way that He has designed them to. Whether it’s evangelism, performing arts, sports, or mercy projects, we want your youth to discover how their unique talents and gifts can be used on the mission field.

WORLD CUP

This summer, come join YWAM Nashville and the rest of the world in South Africa for the 2010 World Cup.
We will be staying in the city of Pretoria, a host city for some of the games, which is located in the northeastern part of South Africa.  It's going to be a fun, action packed mission trip full of opportunities to share Christ with people, get involved in the soccer action and experience the uniqueness of South Africa.

Cost: $715.00 US dollars for 12 days, $585.00 US dollars for 10 days
This includes transportation to and from the airport, transport to and from outreach locations as well as a visit to a shopping mall once a week for any essentials you may need, 3 meals a day, housing and accommodations. We will probably be staying in a school and sleeping on the floor, but will have hot showers and flushing toilets.

Climate:
South Africa is known as a sunny country and snowfall only happens on a few of the higher mountain ranges. Pretoria as a city has a very moderate climate, but winter nights can still get as cold as 35 degrees Fahrenheit and day temperatures average around 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Bring a warm sleeping bag and if possible an extra blanket. The buildings where we will be staying are not heated and will be cold at night.

 

Outreach Plan
We will have a variety of opportunities available during the games. These opportunities include outreaches in and around the city at 'big screen'-broadcasts of soccer games which present great opportunities for evangelism, music, dance and dramas. We also plan to reach out to the poorer neighborhoods, to the young people who are looking forward to playing soccer with you in the dusty streets and open areas. There will be a 'big screen' setup at different places in the city, where you can go and watch all the matches live if you want to. There will be at least one 'big screen' location within walking distance of our accommodations.
