Is IMMERSION Perspective(s) for you?

Whether you're a married couple or an individual, whether you desire to see and understand a place firsthand or connect with people who exist only as stereotypes or news stories in your mind, this program is for those with decades of life under their belt who are ready for a new perspective.

IMMERSION Perspective(s) trips set you right in the middle of communities and cultures with space to engage with your whole self, pushing into years of wisdom and discernment, taking the time to challenge the status quo and what you have always been told about God, yourself, and the world at large.

Join one of EM's mission trips for more “senior” adults—whether retired, empty nesters or simply passionate baby boomers or Gen-X-ers. Travel to Israel & Palestine or South Africa and the U.S.-Mexico Border in 2025 to deepen your faith and experience a new pocket of God’s big world for yourself. Gain knowledge firsthand, and challenge your assumptions. Engage in meaningful discussions about God, wonder, mystery, yourself, and all people.

Are you ready for this kind of experience? Join a community of people on the same journey, seeking a deeper understanding of their faith and life together.

“On my IMMERSION trip, I really discovered Jesus. I was surrounded by his presence every day and fell in love with who He is. I became passionate about living out my life as a Jesus follower being His hands and feet here on earth.”

“Experience Mission's approach to missions is very relational and biblically-focused. They provide training in a relevant and God-centered way that not only prepares you for your time serving with them, but also the rest of your life.”
