VACATIONS WITH A PURPOSE
What is VWAP? VWAP is a way for individuals or families to engage in mission opportunities during their vacation time. ? ?
Why have VWAP? The number one reason most give for not being able to go on a mission trip is a schedule conflict. We plan 10-15 trips a year which are scheduled months in advance with specific dates confirmed. Often these dates do not fit it to many people’s schedules.?
Where does VWAP take place? The ultimate goal for VWAP: We are asking that you commit at least one day of ministry with a missionary or mission agency anywhere in the world you go on vacation.? ?
Current Opportunities: The Missions Office has worked with missionaries in Philadelphia, New York, and Rome, Italy. We are starting with these three cities, because we have great people in place to help you engage in ministry when you vacation there. ?
How does VWAP work?
• Set your vacation time in any of the cities mentioned above.?• Let the Global Impact Office know when/where you are going.
• Suggest a day or two within that time frame for your availability.?
• Give us a description of any mission experience you may have. If this your first trip, GREAT!
• The Missions Office will get you connected to the individual or organization in your city, and you and the representative will make all arrangements.? ?
What if I want to do VWAP, but not in those 3 cities?
Our Office will try to connect you to meaningful ministry wherever you are going. We can’t promise that we can find a specific contact, but we will try. Our 3 cities mentioned are exited about your potential participation. ? ?
