Why apply for IMMERSION?

IMMERSION gives you the opportunity to press pause on life for 1-10 months and give 100% of your energy and focus to serving and learning in unique communities and cultures around the world. Slow down and learn what it means to love and serve others as a follower of Jesus on a daily basis.

This kind of others-first experience has the power to dramatically change the direction of your life. It's the type of kickstart we all need to stop living for ourselves and pursue life in the Kingdom of God.

Get started today! Fill out an interest form for an upcoming program. We will personally connect with you to help you figure out if IMMERSION is a good fit.

“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.”
