Nazarene Mission Teams

 

Started in 1974, Nazarene Missions Teams is a grassroots-born ministry in which self-funded teams of as few as two people travel to a site to help with construction, medical, technical, and evangelistic needs for up to 21 days. These mission teams are not only an opportunity for a team to accomplish something together in partnership with believers in another part of the country or world, but it’s also a time to develop cross-cultural relationships, which, many times, last well beyond the short duration of the trip. Teams and local host churches can learn from one another, worship and pray together, and share God’s love with each other and the surrounding community. Nazarene Missions Teams is unique in the denomination as a movement that began among lay people rather than being planned and developed from general church leaders. Local churches sought to do more than just pray and give; they wanted to go.

2026 Missouri Nazarene Mission Team Trip

Who: 10-20 of Missouri’s finest healthy and capable Nazarenes led by Ted Bruce

What: Removing and replacing the church roof as well as participating in Children’s Day

When: August of 2026 for 2 weeks (exact dates will be determined closer to time)

Where: We will be housed at the Nazarene Seminary in Asunción, Paraguay and working with Pastor Gabriel at Lambaré Church of the Nazarene

How: The cost of the trip will be about $2000 depending on flight costs. We will fly as a team out of Lambert International Airport to Asuncion, Paraguay. This will be an MONaz Adult Project sponsored by Missouri Nazarene churches for the 2026 church year which will hopefully raise the $20,000 project funds.
