Types of Mission Teams
Medical and Dental Teams
We provide healthcare in impoverished communities, refugee camps, and other places
with
little or no
access to medical care.
Our team uses portable devices such as glucometers, urinalysis kits, sonograms, EKG,
and
X-ray machines
to triage patients. They then consult with our practitioners for treatment,
prescriptions, and follow-up
care, often coordinated through our nearby Medical Life Center.
We are in need of:
- Medical Professionals
- Physical or Occupational Therapists
- Trauma Counselors & Social Workers
- Arabic, French or Kurdish Speakers
Vocational & Business Training Teams
Many in impoverished regions lack access to quality education and job skills.
WCF’s Training Teams bring hands-on learning to these communities through courses in
English, computers,
business, sewing, and carpentry—empowering individuals to build a better future and
support their
families with dignity.
We are in need of:
- Teachers

ranges.
We provide various Children, Youth and Young Adult (College) Programs focusing on
character/leadership
and biblical and spiritual values.

- Evangelist
- Teachers/Small Group Leaders

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Mission Trips?
Mission Trips are short-term teams organized by World Compassion Fellowship. We send approximately five teams each year to locations where we have a longer-term presence, particularly at our Life Centers.
Are there any special skills that I need to participate?
Every trip has specific goals that require people with those skills such as a medical team needing medical professionals. However, every team has slots for non specialized team members who can help in other areas.
What is the time commitment?
Our teams spend approximately ten days including travel time. There are mandatory general Trip Trainings (usually 1 or 2) in the beginning of the year and each team has 3 or 4 mandatory team meetings that meet in the weeks prior to departure.
What is included in the cost?
All travel costs are included in the total trip cost. This includes flights, accommodations, and meals. What is not covered is food in the airports or any souvenirs or non-ministry excursions. Please note that this cost is specifically for those in the NYC area.
What are the trip payment guidelines?
If you have been accepted for a trip, you will receive a trip-specific payment schedule with firm deadlines for when funds are due. You may also choose to fundraise for your trip. We use a platform that allows you to create a personalized fundraising page to share with friends and family.
Please note that all trip payments are non-refundable. If you are unable to join the team for any reason, your funds can be saved for use toward a future Mission Team trip or redirected to another team member in need.
If you are selected for a trip, all payments due up to the next payment date must be submitted as soon as possible.
