  Taking a risk for the kingdom

Travel with Buckner International
With more than 143 million orphans in the world today, it’s hard to justify doing nothing. All Christians have a responsibility to care for “orphans and widows in their distress” (James 1:27). It’s what James called “pure religion.”
It’s what we call “your mission.”
Dozens of churches and hundreds of individuals have made an impact in orphans’ lives – and their own – through Buckner International mission trips.
Buckner connects caring Christians with orphan and at-risk children for short-term missions in several countries including: China, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Kenya, Honduras, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Russia, and Peru. Buckner also offers domestic missions opportunities along the United States-Mexico border.
If you or your church would like more information about any available trips or the summer internship program, or if you’d like to see how your church can customize a mission trip to a specific region, please contact Buckner Missions at 1-877-7ORPHAN or visit our Contact Us page for more information. |
