What the Mission Trip Will Be Like
The city of Gainesville is a city of about 60,000 located one hour north of Atlanta, Georgia right next to Lake Lanier. Because of its large number of poultry processing plants, it is often called the "Poultry Capital of the World." The poultry industry has become a major employer of the hispanic community, drawing people from all parts of Central America and elsewhere.
Adventures in Missions has been headquartered in Gainesville since 1993.

Mission Trip Offered By Adventures in Missions
You want to follow Jesus’s example in the way He cared for the lost and the hurting. You want to take up Jesus’s commission to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28) and be His witness to the ends of the earth (Acts 1).
Adventures in Missions is an interdenominational missions organization that focuses on discipleship. We emphasize prayer and relationships in our work around the world. We seek to disciple as Jesus did; our vision is that God would use us to raise up a generation of radically committed disciples of Jesus Christ.
Since we were established in 1989, we have taken over 115,000 people into the mission field, some for as short as a week and others for as long as a year or longer. We minister year-round through our ministry bases and strategic ministry partnerships. We believe that by giving people the opportunity to step outside their comfort zones and join what God is doing in other cultures and nations, lives are transformed.
