*If you are interested in possibly being a part of any of the following short term trips or a future church plant please contact Lori at lperdue@summitrdu.com.

March – South Asia
We are beginning efforts towards establishing a church planting team in South Asia and this is one of our first trips to that area. This trip will give you an opportunity to see what it would be like to be a part of a church planting team in a Hindu context. We hope to incorporate medical, educational and micro-finance efforts with this new church planting team in the future.

March – Central Asia
This Central Asia church planting team is serving in a country that is divided between old world tradition and the up and Western influence. This church planting team is working in a context where everything is drive by relationships. This is your opportunity to go met new people and develop relationships that will hopefully lead to Gospel-centered conversations.

April – Taipei, Taiwan
One of the Summit’s most experienced church planting families is now serving outside of Taipei. Their efforts are specifically directed towards building relationships with university students and young professionals, but anyone can be a part of this trip.

July – Kiev, Ukraine
One of the Summit’s most recent church planting deployments was a family sent to Ukraine. They are currently serving as church planters and are building a relationship with Ukrainian pastors. This will be our first opportunity to visit them and care for them since they moved away from RDU. This is an excellent opportunity for your small group to go and love on one of our families. Also, if you are interested in being a part of caring for and training pastors this is a great opportunity!

July – Dubai
Many of our Central Asia church planters serve together in one of the world’s most difficult environments. This is our opportunity to come alongside of them and care for them. We will be doing everything possible to love of them and minister to them. If you enjoy taking care of children or if you have the gift of hospitality you would be a great fit for this team. If you are a photographer, hairstylist or a masseuse this is your chance to use your talents to bless our global church family.

October – Taipei, Taiwan
One of the Summit’s most experienced church planting families is now serving outside of Taipei. Their efforts are specifically directed towards building relationships with university students and young professionals, but anyone can be a part of this trip.
