God is active all around the world. Is your youth group part of the action?

Merge helps you lead your youth group on a service trip that is more than just an exciting outing beyond your home community. Through seven sessions of preparation, on-site reflection, and follow up, you and your youth will:

• build a team
• connect with God through spiritual exercises
• learn about cultural differences
• explore God's mission for the church
• reflect on your experiences on the service trip
• and apply what you learn back in your own setting

Sessions are based on the biblical journeys of Moses and his team—from Moses' call at the burning bush to the Israelites' crossing of the Jordan River. The guide offers step-by-step plans for each session, with its discussions and fun activities—along with reproducible journal pages for youth to record their experiences and thoughts.

Happy travels as you merge with God's work in the world!
