Stacy Povian, a former World Racer and current Adventures staff member, attended training camp for World Race and Passport participants this past week in Toccoa, GA. She got to witness what it looks like when God transforms college students and young adults and mobilizes them to bring heaven to earth all over the world. This is Stacy’s story:   Last week we had about 300 Passport and World Race participants at training camp here in Georgia. All of them are getting ready to go out onto the mission field in September. For most of us on staff, training camp is our favorite part...

If you’ve been keeping up with the blog, you’ve noticed a pattern: Adventures in Missions is asking young adults a big question, “What kind of Passporter will you be?” Don’t know the answer? Take the quiz to find out. Advocate. Caretaker. Adventurer. Or something else? Pinterest, youtube, blogs, Instagram: all mediums to express our creativity to the world. Upcycle is the new recycle. It’s what creators do. We make something out of nothing and we take something and make it better. Here’s how the dictionary likes to define it: cre-a-tiv-i-ty: the ability...

God sent us out to the nations, but we all serve in the kingdom differently. Want to discover what kind of Passporter will you be? Take the quiz to find out!   Are you an advocate or caretaker? Maybe. Or maybe you’re something else. Never have I ever… -been skydiving -hiked a volcano -eaten a tarantula -rafted the Nile Oh wait…maybe you have, or at least something like it. If you haven’t, we guess it’s probably on your bucket list. Do you thrive on exploration, willing to try anything at least once? You know no strangers and fear no foods. The thought...

School may be out for the summer, but the Passport has a quiz you don’t want to miss. (Don’t worry, it’s not for a grade!)   We’re asking the question, “What kind of Passporter will you be?”   Why? Because we are all called to live out the Gospel, but we just don’t do it all the same way. That’s what makes us the body of Christ: some are hands, some are feet, others eyes, or ears. Get the idea?  Would your friends call you the host(ess) with the most(est)? Are you the one making chicken noodle soup when they’re sick and...

Just what kind of Passporter will you be?   There’s a quiz for that.  As followers of Christ, we’ve all been given the same mandate: go into all the world and make disciples. However, we’re not all wired the same and might accomplish this differently. Some of us are advocates, or creators, while others adventurers, or caretakers.  We love and minister differently, with one united purpose: fill the earth with God’s glory and love.   So, who are you?           “That’s not okay” slips out of...

We took the opportunity to check in with our Passport missionaries to catch a glimpse of life on the field.  We could tell you that the Passport is more than just a 1-9 month missions trip for 18-22 year olds (which you can apply for here).  We could tell you that the Passport is an experience that will expose you life in the developing world.  We could tell you that you’ll confront human trafficking, the plight of orphans, and poverty.  We could say that you’ll probably experience community and growth at a deeper level than you have before. We...
