NEXT Worldwide regards safety and security as one of our most important priorities. We work diligently with our church-planting partner to provide a safe environment and healthy food/drink preparation in every region we work. We are constantly monitoring the safety of the areas in which we work as well as preparing contingency plans in case the need arises. Travel insurance is included in our trip costs to cover any in-country medical needs as well as emergency evacuation if needed. Additionally all NEXT mission leaders are first aid/CPR certified.

By combining church-planting missions with student leadership training, your students will be challenged in a unique way to Live the Mission God has for their lives—wherever that may be! From the moment you sign up, you’ll be connected with a NEXT mission leader who will guide you through every step of the process — from travel planning, to your Student & Parent Info Meeting (SPIM), to pre-trip training, to on-the-field logistics and training, to post-trip follow-up — allowing you to do what God called you to do: minister to your students.The best thing you can do is to prepare yourself and the team spiritually. Begin now by praying for your team and for the ministry God is preparing for you. We will provide you with a trip planning guide as well as pre-trip training materials that will walk you through this process. Please take this seriously. It is always evident on the first day in country who has worked diligently through the training material and who has not!

Your group deposit, less $100 per person for each person less than your group minimum, will be available to you as the group leader to use or divide among any trip participants trip accounts you choose including your own.
Most people begin reserving space for their mission trip 12-15 months prior to the trip. Individual trip participants usually begin registering and raising their funds 6-10 months prior to the trip.
Pre-trip training should begin 2-3 months before departure.One of the greatest tragedies coming out of an event like this would be if students went home, showed some pictures, shared some stories, had a good feeling for a few weeks or months, but there was no real life-change — no long-term impact. We are committed to preparing trip participants to “Live the Mission” not just on our trips, but everyday. When participants get home we want them to be equipped with skills they can use to accomplish the mission God has called them to in their neighborhood as well as among the nations.
