Development Route

Step away from modern life in the rural village of Nsoko, Eswatini, where you will fall in love with the incredible sunsets and the simple pace of life. During the last three months of your Gap Year journey, you will partner with the Adventures in Missions Eswatini base, which is bringing hope in this country where thousands of children have been orphaned by the HIV/AIDS epidemic. At Carepoints around the country, local staff are providing these children with food, clean water, education, healthcare, and discipleship. Our base staff will equip you to holistically care for these children and teach them about Jesus. Watch God transform your life as He continues to transform this country.

This nation’s friendly people have earned Thailand its suitable nickname as the Land of Smiles. Here you will have the opportunity to reveal the truth of Jesus to a deeply unreached country, whether you are prayer-walking through the red-light district, ministering to tourists, playing with street kids or teaching English to local Thai people.

Journey through Costa Rica, where misty volcanoes stand guard over bustling San Jose, home to our Adventures in Missions base. During your time in this tropical country, you will work with a variety of our ministry partners who are showing the radical love of Jesus to this city. Your team might be teaching skills like dance or English, or teaching neighborhood kids about the Bible. Or your team might do community projects in slums devastated by gang violence and poverty. As you grow in your spiritual gifts through weekly teachings from our local base staff, walk out your faith by showing this pura vida nation the true source of Life.
