Do you have a heart for others?
Do you desire to encounter Christ in a deeper way?
Are you seeking to step out of your comfort zone and bring comfort to the world’s poor?
Come on a week-long mission trip with FMC, and see what God does with your “YES!”
Serve alongside full-time FMC missionaries, experience fellowship with other mission trip participants, and form new friendships. You’ll meet (and love) the locals and learn more about their culture. Each trip allows time for service projects, community and personal prayer, and fellowship and fun!
In the past, we’ve hosted parish groups, college campus ministries, other Catholic apostolates, and innumerable families and friends who want to experience foreign missions together.
We invite families of all ages and sizes to serve with us, as well as individual men and women 18 and older.

How God has worked in real lives through FMC mission trips:
“It really changes the ways you see things and helps to help you get a new perspective. To be able to just give a full week to others, but also be poured into so deeply by those around you is so much more rewarding and life-changing than I expected.”
– Abigail
“I was going through a very difficult time prior to participating in mission. Throughout the trip, my heart was opened to receive the Lord’s love like I once had, and I felt known cherished by Him. My mission trip with FMC opened my heart to giving and receiving authentic, divine love in a way I have never experienced before.”
– Anna
