The words of Jesus in Matthew 28:19-20 are clear. He says, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” These are the last words Jesus spoke before He ascended into heaven. Those words, often referred to as the Great Commission, were not just for them then, those words are also for us now. As followers of Jesus, it is now our job to continue His mission here on earth! To whom has Jesus called you? Where has He called you to go? Do you feel a tug to serve the Lord overseas? We want to walk with you as you navigate these questions. Whether you are just getting your feet wet or are ready to dive in head-first, we are here to provide support, encouragement, resources, and opportunities for you to GO.
Our goal through Treks is to help our church family capture the heart of God and His desire to make His name known among the nations! We do this by providing both local and global opportunities to go serve and share the love of Christ with those around us. We want to meet not just physical needs, but the deeper spiritual needs of those who hunger for hope.
The Grove supports close to 80 Global Partners around the world who are planting churches, establishing community centers, translating the Bible, building schools and orphanages, and sharing the love of Jesus with non-believers every day. Are you interested in joining our team of Global Partners? We would love to meet with you and hear what God has placed on your heart! Matthew 24:14 tells us, “this Gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” At The Grove, our global focus is primarily on reaching those nations, or people groups, who have not yet been reached. Our desire is that ALL nations, ALL peoples, would have the opportunity to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ. If you are interested in serving overseas long-term, we want to provide the training, discipleship, accountability, and on-field support that you need.
