Now is the Time to Book Your 2026 Mission Trip!

I (Marko) was in Puerto Rico these last few days with a group of youth workers looking at the work of Praying Pelican Missions. Praying Pelican’s approach is unique, in that they develop long-term relationships with local church leaders in all 40 domestic and international locations where they serve, and visiting teams serve as an extension of those churches. 90% of PPM’s trips are also lead by local staff who are connected to these partner churches year-round. It’s an approach that minimizes some of the problems that can occur with other trips, and maximizes the best stuff, building up the church.

And, given that it’s October, now is the time to lock in your plans for 2026! PPM would love to help you consider options; and I am also happy to answer any questions you might have (you can just respond to this email if you’d like).

Here’s a link to PPM’s site, and here’s a 2-minute video of me chatting with Pastor David from Puerto Rico two days ago:
