Dying to Self, Learning to Serve

Groups are mobilized to serve on 2 to 4 day missional experiences. Team members discover what it means to live missionally. They serve in 6 to 8 different ministry sites. They rub shoulders with people from different walks of life and stuggle with all kinds of pressures.

Team members walk away with the "One Thing" they can do over
the next 6 months to live a life on Mission.

What is a Mission Plunge?
A Mission Plunge offers team members a local service opportunity for the sake of seeing others the way Jesus did. GO Connect works with local churches to bring an experience in which team members come to know God in a new way. We coordinate ministry centers for teams to fill the days with serving opportunties.

Why should my group do a Mission Plunge?
Every team member has the opportunity to walk away with an expanded worldview that can only be obtained by service and the plunge experience.

What are the results?
A Mission Plunge can open the hearts of everyone who participates to the needs of the less fortunate. Each team member walks away with the "One Thing" they can do differently in their own personal life.

What will our participants do?
They will be servants. Team members are exposed to new situations, opportunities and physical surroundings that will challenge their stereotypes and assumptions. They will work in low income areas whether they are picking up trash or eating with a child. We focus on ministry sites close the the groups home church, for example, children’s programs, churches, parks, adult foster care centers, food banks, and neighborhood centers. Our trained leaders work with the team members as they process what they see and experience.

What is the cost?
The cost for each team member is $35 per day.  This covers the housing, three meals a day, all ministry site scheduling, staff, training, and ministry costs associated with the site.
