OnMission2 can provide coaching and guidance on raising support for your trip, however we cannot provide any financial assistance for trip participants.

Will an interpreter be provided on the trip?

Yes. OnMission2 will provide a translator for teaching opportunities and general communication for each day.  We suggest one translator per two visiting missionaries. All Translator fees and their daily expenses are included in the cost passed on to each individual on the mission trip.

Can I purchase my own airfare for a trip?

Yes, as this is not the responsibility of OnMission2.  In fact, each traveling missionary will be financially responsible for their own airfare to and from destinations, as well as their own travel/medical insurance. Your team leader is responsible for coordinating your team,
purchasing the tickets, and confirming trip insurance for the group to prevent multiple arrival and departure time complications.

How does OnMission2 prepare me for the trip?

  • Trip Planning:  OnMission2 will assist the US Leader setting up all trip logistics including travel plans, flights, ground transportation, lodging, meals and interpreters.

  • Trip Preparation:  Typically, there will be one or two meetings by video or phone call to discuss logistics and the culture.  Whenever possible, OnMission2 will include its on-the-field missionary in this meeting.

  • Packing list: OnMission2 will provide a basic packing list for each trip that will help prepare you for the site where you are going to serve.

  • Immunization Suggestions:  Ask your family physician about what you may need and/or  refer to the wwwnc.cdc.gov  website for their recommendations for the country to which you are traveling.

  • Passport/visa requirements: If applicable, OnMission2 will discuss the visa process for each specific country.

What are the requirements to participate on a trip?

  • Be a follower of Jesus Christ,

  • Be in good standing with your local church, and

  • Have a desire to use your time to equip the church around the globe.

  • Be at least 18 years old, and

  • Complete the trip application online.

 

Additionally, you must meet these requirements:

  • Theological: OnMission2 operates under the Baptist Faith and Message 2000. All OnMission2 trip participants must adhere to this statement of faith. 

  • Medical/health: Some OnMission2 sites are remote and therefore may be challenging for a person with certain health concerns to minister in any given setting. For this reason, OnMission2 works carefully with applicants who have health restrictions/concerns to ensure that every person is able to have a safe and healthy trip. If you have specific medical concerns, please contact us to discuss which sites would be best to consider.
