Number of Sessions: 4

Session Objectives:

• Students connect with their personal mission.
• Students understand how their mission connects with God’s plan for the world.
• Students understand how the team is essential for accomplishing God’s purpose.
• Students understand that this trip is the starting line of their life mission, but their mission has no finish line.

Distinctive Element: The first lesson includes the Unique Abilities leadership assessment developed by LeaderTreks specifically for high school students. This assessment helps them identify their unique God-given abilities so they can use them, not only on the mission trip but also when they return home.

What is Passport about?
At LeaderTreks we believe a mission trip is primarily a spiritual experience. Passport encourages you to go beyond the logistics of the trip and the cultural experience by preparing your students for the spiritual, team and leadership aspects of the trip.

Four self-contained sessions include everything you need to run highly successful, interactive pre-trip training sessions. The Facilitator’s Guide includes:

• Teaching outline and notes
• Corresponding PowerPoint
• Illustrations and movie clip suggestions
• Unique Abilities assessment
• Related activities and team building exercises

Each participant needs a Student Guide to complete throughout the teaching sessions.

Who should use Passport?
Anyone taking students on a mission trip will benefit from this pre-trip curriculum. Arriving to your destination with a prepared team results in a deeper encounter with God, a more unified team, and a greater opportunity for developing leaders in your group and for God’s Kingdom.
