This mission trip changed my outlook on life. Much of it was about how God worked in the people we met in Paris. But just as much, maybe more, was about how God used this trip to work on me.

Why go to Germany + Paris?

Language is a beautiful gift. It opens doors, builds friendships, and helps us understand one another's stories. Through our unique backgrounds, experiences, and skills, many of us have opportunities to connect with people from cultures and countries different from our own. International students are often far from home and looking for community, friendship, and belonging. This mission trip is an opportunity to meet them where they are, build friendships, and share the hope of Jesus.

You’ll be a part of a multilingual team who can build friendships and share the gospel with international students from a wide variety of countries in English, French, or Mandarin.

The Nuremberg and Munich, Germany teams are accepting Mandarin speakers only.

The Paris team is accepting Mandarin, French, and English speakers.

Why Germany?

Europe attracts many international students and scholars. Germany has the most Chinese international students in the European Union. Over the years, many of these students have become Christians and have established Chinese churches in Germany. We have an opportunity to come alongside these believers in Nuremberg and in Munich, and help them connect with even more students. 

God is at work in Germany. Will you join him where he is working, to share the good news of Jesus with Mandarin-speaking students?

Why Paris?

Paris is home to some of the world’s best universities. The number of international students in France has grown to over 450,000, with one third of them estimated to be studying in Paris. The majority of these students are from countries where it is not easy to learn about Jesus.

We will spend a lot of time meeting international students in the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, where students of the world live while doing their schooling in Paris. 

The opportunity to share Jesus’ love with the world is here. Would you join us?

Ministry in different languages

You might learn to tell your story, share the gospel, and help with Bible studies in Mandarin or French.

Deep friendships

You’ll depend on God to build authentic friendships, connect students to Christian community, and give them opportunities to hear the gospel.

Church partnerships

You’ll partner with local churches. You’ll learn from church leaders, see how God is working among them, and encourage local believers.

What happens on the Germany + Paris mission trip?

You will start the trip with orientation together in Germany.

There will be three teams going to three different cities where you’ll share your life and the good news of Jesus with international students. Two Mandarin-speaking teams are going to Nuremberg, Germany and to Munich, Germany. The third team, with French, Mandarin, or English speakers, will travel to Paris, France.

You will:

  • Participate in a multilingual team to reach out to and build friendships with international students from many different countries

  • Host activities to gather, connect, and explore spiritual topics more deeply with international students

  • Partner with local churches and student fellowships, praying and worshiping alongside your team and other believers

  • Learn from local church and ministry leaders, receive training on ministry among international students

  • Encourage local believers—and be encouraged—as you share stories of God at work

  • Share your story of God’s work in your life and the gospel in English, French, or Mandarin

  • Help international students who are Christians to connect with campus communities

  • Take part in fun activities and excursions

You’ll end the trip with a team debrief and conversations about next steps.

How is the Germany + Paris mission trip funded?

The cost of each Mission Trip includes international airfare, orientation, all ministry-related expenses, debrief, in-country transportation, housing, meals, and administration. 

Once accepted, we will provide coaching and training on how to invite people to financially and prayerfully partner with you. Support raising can be an opportunity for you to grow in faith by trusting God to provide. It also gives your community the opportunity to join in what God is doing.
