Discover God's World

An eye opening month-long mission to Fiji.

We will partner with local Fijian churches and Christians to minister the gospel during a month-long mission trip. You will serve in orphanages, schools and prisons, participate in hands-on community projects, and experience life first-hand in the homes of Fijian families.  

Two days a week serving at your church or school.

You’ll serve in ministry for two days a week over the whole year, experiencing all the joys and challenges. Your placement will be supervised by a Minister, Chaplain or Teacher.

Showing God’s love in action through opportunities to serve in youth and children’s camps throughout the year.

You’ll share your life and faith with campers through Youthworks Christian Outdoor Education camps, WROK disability camps, Southern Cross disadvantaged kids’ camps, and HSC Study Conferences. You’ll see first-hand the challenges and difficulties facing those doing it tough during our Ministry at the Margins Day with Anglicare.
