"Going on a short-term mission to Vietnam opened my eyes to how God can work through anyone. Even though I had doubts and felt inadequate at first, I can honestly say that God used me and my team to spread the gospel to students in a foreign country. This experience has made my faith in him stronger."
Enoch, 2023
Applications for the Vietnam mission trip are now closed.
Why go to Vietnam?
Of the 100 million people in this country, only a few know Christ. There are millions who have no church exposure or a Bible of their own.
However, Vietnam is rapidly opening up to the gospel. Vietnamese students struggle with many of the things that challenge Canadian students and are especially open to hearing a Christian perspective.
On this mission trip, you’ll partner with local Christians by attending their gatherings, building friendships and, together, sharing the good news of Jesus. You’ll be helping to develop a relatively new international partnership, as you lean into cultural learning and trust building.
And you’ll be a part of a community living on mission. Together with your team, you’ll learn to share the gospel in a culturally relevant way.
What happens on the Vietnam mission trip?
You’ll come alongside our local Christian partners to develop genuine friendships with Vietnamese students who don’t yet know Jesus.
In these relationships, you’ll create opportunities for people to hear the gospel.
You’ll learn together with your team, as you engage cross-culturally in ministry, friendship, and life.
A typical weekly schedule will include:
- Team-building
- Praying and studying the Bible
- Attending the local Christian students’ fellowship and a local church
- Building friendships with locals by having picnics, going to cafes, playing sports, etc.
- Being mentored by a P2C staff member
- Resting and adventuring
- Helping host English clubs; many Vietnamese are eager to practise English with fluent speakers like you!
3 things to highlight about this mission trip
Pioneering: You’ll be able to share about Jesus in a country that has only had freedom of belief for a few decades. And you’ll help build trust in a relatively new global partnership.
Encouragement: You’ll support Vietnamese student leaders and you’ll be inspired by their passion. You’ll see what God is already doing in Vietnam, including enjoying the beauty of this country.
Relationships: You’ll make Vietnamese friends and you’ll live in community with your team. And you will grow in your relationship with God, especially as you rely on the Holy Spirit in a new culture.
