Short Term Trips

Over the next 20 years, Finisterre Vision is aiming to reach 53 more unreached people groups. We believe we can do this by sending out 11 more long-term teams. For an individual to commit to a 10 year mission is no small deal. How do we recruit for this? By exposing young people to the mission field! We send short-term teams with the purpose of being a blessing to our missionaries and the people they work with, but it is much more than that! Short-term trips are part of a larger plan, a long-term plan to reach 53 more ethnic groups who do not yet know Jesus.

Who & What: This trip is open to Pastors, Missions Leaders, and those who are strongly considering missions. Visit Mawerero Village and see first-hand what it looks like to live in a tribal location. We will spend a few days serving and interacting with the church planting team.

We will also spend a few days in the town of Madang, interacting with our logistics coordinators.

You may want to check with your insurance plan as they may cover a portion of the cost of some of these immunizations, if you see your primary care doctor. Typhoid is the one immunization that will likely not be available this way, because it is uncommon in the U.S.

Malarone
One per day starting 2 days before trip and continuing for 7 days after return.
