Merge
Short-term trip, long-term impact.
When you embark on a MERGE trip, you are part of a larger mission. You are continuing the work of those who went before you as well as preparing the way for those who follow.
With more than twenty years of experience, MERGE is prepared to custom design your trip to share your unique gifts and abilities to further the kingdom of God and enhance what your hosts are doing in their community.
Our mission is to share and experience God’s love through an ongoing physical, intellectual, cultural, and spiritual exchange; to use your group’s unique gifts, talents, and abilities with those of others; to encourage lives; to share the gospel of Jesus Christ; to build the body of Christ; and to glorify God.
Anyone can MERGE
MERGE hosts trips for youth groups, family teams, college students, young adults, men and women’s teams, construction teams, medical teams, and others. If you have a group, we have an opportunity.
MERGE provides Covenant churches opportunities to partner with other ministries. As a goal, MERGE is committed to support churches in developing long-term partnerships with cross-cultural ministries and communities.
