Student Quote:
"Before going on summer project, I didn’t see the need to share or teach others about my faith. Being in SE Asia and interacting with the people there helped me to understand the importance and need for it. I was scared to go but God’s power was greater than my fear."
Rachel R. (student from the 2023 trip)
Parent Quote:
"When my son first came to me about joining the team, I had concerns about the distance, safety, and honestly what he could eat there. However, when Michael came home, I could see that he had changed. His compassion for others had grown even more and it reinforced God’s promises and character in his own heart."
Melissa K. (parent of a student from the 2023 trip)
FAQ:
Why do we send students?
Our hope is for students to develop community and make lifelong friends, grow in their faith by engaging with different cultures, and make a global impact wherever they go.
What is our goal/vision for the trip?
The vision for this trip is to enable our students to see how God is working among the nations. Our partnering organization helps make this possible by training our students to go to the local college campuses to develop relationships with students in hopes of sharing the Gospel.
Is this safe?
Yes, while there is always an assumed risk of going and doing, we work closely with our partners who live on the ground to make the trip as safe as possible. We also watch and obey domestic and foreign travel regulations and will not send anyone if Doxology deems it unsafe.
How do I pay for this trip?
Students are taught to support raise for their trip by Doxology Staff. While personal payment for the trip is acceptable, we encourage students to seek supporters who will be praying for them and contributing financially.
What happens if there’s an emergency?
We get everyone home ASAP. All of our international trips are covered through insurance, including emergency evacuation and hospital visits in case something were to happen. You will be notified if something happens to your child as soon as possible. A good rule of thumb is “no news is good news” if you are worried about someone's safety.
What if the trip is canceled/my student can’t go?
If for some reason a trip is canceled by Doxology after support raising has begun, we will ask your student to fill out a scholarship application for a future trip. If your student voluntarily exits the trip, we ask that you cover the expenses that have been made on your behalf.
Where will my student be staying on the trip?
Students are housed in a secure location designated by the C2C team, typically an apartment-style residence. The C2C host team is always in close proximity to this location.
