I loved Shiroles, my team, and everything that came with it!

I had the pleasure of interning for Experience Mission this summer in Puerto Rico and Costa Rica. Experience Mission has been one of the biggest blessings recently in my life. Their staff is so helpful and so equipping the interns for work during the summer. Their heart for missions has been one of the best I have seen. It has been such a sweet time learning from the way they do short term missions and engage the world in a way that loves others and glorifies the Lord!

I had a great experience with Experience Mission this summer as an intern. The training we completed in May prepared us well in a broad sense for what we would encounter on the field. Though it was our first time doing ministry in this area, we were able to establish new partnerships and build upon what God was already doing in the ministries in the city. I am thankful that we were able to stay with the teams in the church and cook their meals throughout the week. It was stretching and challenging to be entrusted with so much responsibility over so many team members, but we were able to lead them well as we trusted God’s direction. Everyday looked different, and every week posed its own challenges and excitements, so we were constantly relying on God for wisdom and guidance. One of the things that would have improved our experience was more supervision over team dynamics apart from the Trip Coordinator’s responsibility to mediate and oversee the basic issues. It would be helpful to have more of a supervising presence when running into problems and boundaries. However, I know that part of the job is being responsible for each other as a team, so I do not know if this could be changed. Apart from that, I think Experience Mission did well at preparing us for teams, besides a few run-ins we had with miscommunications about PEX cards and Kids Club materials. I would recommend the internship to other people, and I will definitely be prayerfully considering my return for next summer!

Experience Mission’s ministry is 5 stars. Their Summer Internship program is an inspiring leadership opportunity that refines character and strengthens faith. Every single EM staff member shines a genuine example of servanthood. I feel blessed to have worked with this incredible organization and recommend their ministry in highest regards.

Our Youth Group team of 22 had an amazing mission trip to Navajo Nation, New Mexico! The EM staff, Paul and Sarah were fantastic! Everything was as expected when we arrived, the worksites and people served were memorable. Expectations were surpassed! I would wholeheartedly recommend EM and would plan another mission trip in the future. Excellent organization and people doing God’s work.

They’re constantly trying to learn and do better and are open to changing things and growing as a company! The people in Africa are amazing and have me a whole new perspective!!

The people I met throughout the communities were amazing & they taught me so much!

always willing to talk and work through what’s going on!
