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."

What You'll Do

Real Work. Real Impact.

Across 10 days, participants don't just observe — they go. They serve. They speak. They pray. Every day is structured, purposeful, and designed to push you further than you thought you'd go.

Evangelism

You'll go out into communities and share your faith in real conversations with real people. Not a script — a skill you build while doing it.

Training & Application

Each day includes structured teaching moments followed immediately by application in the field. You don't just hear it — you go do it the same day.

Small Groups

Daily small group time creates space for honest conversation, accountability, and the kind of friendships that don't end when the trip does.

Quiet Time

Every day includes personal quiet time — space to slow down, read, reflect, and hear what God might be saying in the middle of a full schedule.

Prayer Walk

Walk the streets and neighborhoods you're serving — intentionally, prayerfully. A prayer walk changes how you see a place and the people in it.

Community Service

Hands-on service projects alongside experienced leaders across NY, NJ & PA. You learn leadership by being handed responsibility — not by watching someone else hold it.

"They don't just come back with a story. They come back with a direction."

Testimonials

What Participants Say

"I came back a different person. The people, the work, the conversations — I didn't expect any of it to hit the way it did."

Questions

Frequently Asked

No. You do not need to belong to any church, denomination, or religion to participate. Faith is part of the experience — discussed openly and respectfully — but no prior background is required.

Participants lodge at Camp Comanche in Scott Township, PA and First Congregational Church of Chester, NJ. Outreach and service takes place across New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.

Participants under 12 must attend with a parent or guardian who participates in the full experience.

It is strongly discouraged. Participants who have only attended part of the trip in the past consistently wished they had stayed for the full experience.

Yes. Limited scholarships are available. Contact Ray Desiderio directly at EdgeImpactInc@gmail.com. Cost should not be the reason a motivated teen stays home.
