What the Mission Trip Will Be Like
Share the Gospel and help improve relations between Protestants and Catholics in Northern Ireland.
Northern Ireland experienced a civil war in the 1960’s – 1998 because people believed their conflicts should be resolved through violence instead of peace. Northern Irish citizens were divided into Catholics who wanted to unite with Southern Ireland, Protestants that supported Britain’s rule over Northern Ireland, and those somewhere between these two perspectives. The result was years of tension filled with violent crimes such as bombings intended to hurt civilians for political gain on both sides.
In 1998, an agreement was reached between the two sides that brought about a ceasefire and established order in the region. However, tension between Protestants and Catholics still exists in Northern Ireland.
A local ministry has hosted teams from across the U.S. for over 20 years in a bid to break down barriers between Protestants and Catholics through strategic neighborhood outreach projects that equally share the Good News of Jesus with both groups who are loved and accepted by Him, who is deserving of their love as well.
Join our mission trips to Northern Ireland to share the Gospel and experience the unique culture of the area.

Relation of Opportunity to National Church and/or Long-term Goals
Mission Discovery groups have been invited to serve in this area by local leaders within the community. Groups traveling with us play a significant part in the work God is doing in this area. Mission Discovery’s efforts in Northern Ireland will focus on sharing the Gospel and improving relations between Protestant and Catholic believers in the area. The staff at the Murlough House hope to break the cycle of mistrust and animosity that has divided Northern Ireland for over 60 years.

Mission Trip Offered By Mission Discovery
Mission Discovery trips aim to help developing communities. Teams of volunteers build homes for families in need, love on orphans, feed the hungry, clothe and educate school children, provide medical care and empower churches to bring hope to their communities. The Mission Discovery Staff arranges food, lodging, and logistics so volunteers will be effective from day one. Each night we offer a worship service to provide an atmosphere to come together and reflect on what the volunteers have experienced during the day.
Open your eyes to a world waiting to be discovered. Since 1991, God has used Mission Discovery teams to transcend language and cultural barriers to bring hope and Spiritual awakening to those who need urgent help. Since its beginning, over 50,000 students and adults have served around the world with Mission Discovery. Today, that work continues stronger than ever!
Each year Mission Discovery staff gather partners for support. Because of its passionate donors, Mission Discovery is able to lower trip prices. We want everyone to serve on a mission trip, so our goal is to make them more affordable. Together, through the power of Christ, we can make a huge difference in the world!
