Trip Description

GO TENNESSEE Family

If this is your first time on a GO Team or if you have a heart for service, our trip to the Ability Ministry in Tennessee is a great way for you and your family to serve together! You will travel to the beautiful hills of Tennessee near Knoxville, to serve at Riverwood, a residential facility for adults with special needs. You will never view this community of people the same way after spending time with them at Riverwood. During the daytime the team works at the facility to do maintenance and special projects for the residents. Service opportunities include landscaping, cleaning projects, organizing and more. The best part of the trip, however is sharing meals with the residents and getting to know them. Come experience God’s heart in a totally new way through their eyes and learn how to love unconditionally!

For more information about this trip please email team leader, Phil Fincher at pfincher@compassionchristian.com.

Please note, all applications must be submitted 90 days before departure for international trips and 60 days before domestic trips. Applying for a GO Team does not confirm your spot on the team. Once applications have been reviewed, you will be notified of your acceptance or status on a waiting list. If a team is full you can still apply and be put on a waiting list should a spot become available. If a Campus is not able to fill their team, any open spots will open to applicants from other Campuses 120 days prior to departure for international teams and 90 days prior to departure for domestic teams. Once your application is accepted you will be asked to submit a deposit ($100 for international and $25 for domestic teams) as well as complete a travel profile in Managed Missions. Submission of your deposit and profile will confirm your spot on the team.

We will continue to monitor any restrictions to travel due to COVID protocol in the US as well as the host countries for our Teams. Because restrictions fluctuate, all locations, dates of travel and costs listed are tentative and subject to change. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility!
