The goal of Mission Teams

GLO Mission Teams are looking for people with a personal faith in Jesus Christ. People who have a desire to serve Him and share their faith with others in order to see others saved and grow in their own personal relationship with Jesus. Everyday we are God’s representatives and equally so during a mission team. Therefore we need to consider our responsibilities and what is expected of us as we live for Him and serve Him in Mission.

Please follow these simple guidelines of how best to PREPARE, SERVE and RETURN, to make your GLO Mission Team a great and worthwhile experience. Please, remember to:

  • Pray: Spend time with God in prayer before the team starts. If possible, raise prayer support with family, friends and your church also and ask them to continue praying for you as you go on the team
  • Acquaint yourself with the local customs and culture of the country you will be visiting and please be aware of what is expected of you in terms of dress and behaviour in order to avoid offence
  • Learn a few helpful, polite phrases to help build new relationships
  • Consider contacting fellow team members (details from the GLO admin office)
  • Contact the team leader – they may wish for you to bring resources to help in outreach or prepare for special events. Gather possible dramas, quizzes, games, activities etc that could be used.
  • Think about your ‘personal testimony’ (ie. how you became a Christian, what Christ means to you and what He’s doing in your own life today) as you will have the opportunity to share your faith with others
  • Read the FAQ!

FAQ

1. A quick checklist

  • Passport
  • Travel Tickets
  • Personal Travel Insurance
  • Personal belongings (Including practical clothing & footwear, towels & toiletries, sleeping bag or sheet)
  • Plugs adapters
  • Bible & notebook
  • Location sheet with leaders contact details!
  • Team Payment (indicated on Location sheet) plus your own spending money.

2. Serve as you go

As Servants

  • Respect other team members.
  • Have a willing, humble and co-operative spirit, living and working together as part of a team.
  • Have a flexible and positive attitude.
  • Acknowledge that the team leader has ultimate responsibility for you.
  • Please be willing to work under his leadership, supervision and his direction, to accept his decision and seek approval for any
    activities outside the official organised programme.

As Ambassadors

  • For GLO and all it represents as a vehicle for spreading the Gospel
  • For the resident missionaries and local church who will still be in place after the team has gone. It is all too easy to undo years of faithful work in two weeks by selfish or thoughtless actions.
  • In this regard, exclusive friendships with members of the opposite sex are not encouraged during vacation teams.
  • Most importantly for the Lord Himself – your attitude towards fellow team members and those you are hoping to reach should be that of Christ

As Guests

  • Respect your hosts and help out wherever you can
  • Don’t over react to unfamiliar food or drink offered during the team. It has been graciously prepared so be sensitive and thankful
  • Respect the accommodation and property of the hosts and fellow team members

Mission Team Highlights

"As the 2nd time being on a GLO Team with Northfield, I am particularly thankful for how God uses those with such varied gifts / abilities & brings it all together for His glory in a week or two with GLO."
Northfield
Northfield
"It was really encouraging to be a part of a team that just worshipped God many times throughout the day, just bursting into song. We also saw many people on the streets who's hearts had been stirred and were already prepared for us to talk to them by God."
"Going on mission made me appreciate what I have more."
"The highlight for me this time, was seeing at least 27 young folk accept Christ in to their lives in the final night of Camp. But also on a personal level. God really pushed me out my comfort zone big time and and he put people in my way in order to challenge me. Which was amazing."

"It was all brilliant, God answered prayers, the team the following week said a few kids professed to be saved and there were kids at our clubs that asked a lot of good tricky questions. Also, the team became like a family it was amazing."
"The highlight is always the children. Their reaction to our dramas, quizzes and crafts, it's wonderful to see. Worth all the effort the team put into the programme."

"I made so many new friends and deepened my relationship and understanding of God."
"I was challenged to live in another culture and speaking a different language than mine, but God was with me through everything. God spoke to me and to the teens during the camp!"
"One of the summer teams this year was the Royal Welsh Show. I was much bolder and more comfortable to talk to people are share the gospel, something I couldn't do last year and had prayed about doing throughout the year."
"I saw a church unified and every member wanted to give his much to work for God. I felt inspired to do my best, too. I loved the many ways they evangelised, a bit different from the way I used to. I thank God for this opportunity He gave me and I hope to meet them another time, loving God together."
