What This Is

More Than a Trip. A Turning Point.

The Tri-State Mission is a 10-day structured experience designed to take teens and young adults out of their comfort zones and into real service, real community, and real purpose.

It is not a sightseeing trip. It is not a passive program. Participants are expected to show up, work hard, serve others, and engage honestly with the people and conversations around them.

Many participants come back the following year. Many bring a friend.

"Participants don't leave the same."
