Southwest Mission Adventure

Day 1

After your arrival in Phoenix, you will travel with your Joshua Expeditions guide to Papago Park for a quick hike to see a great view of the city. Later, you will enjoy dinner and devotions as your day draws to a close.

Days 2-4

Over the next three days you will serve with a local ministry in Phoenix called the Dream Center. The Dream Center has various ministries in which you can be involved, including outreach to the greater Phoenix community through food and clothing distribution and the sharing of God’s Word. You will have opportunities to interact with men and women who have found Christ at their darkest times in life and are turning their lives around through an intense discipleship program. During your time here, you may be able to share your personal testimony of faith, or simply perform a song or skit during outreach and church services. At the close of each evening, your group will meet to talk about the day's events and take some time for devotions.

Day 5

After departing your new friends at the Dream Center, your group will begin the journey north to Flagstaff. Along the way, you will make a stop in the breathtaking red rock landscape of Sedona to enjoy some hiking, photo opportunities and classic Southwest shopping. You may even want to take the short hike up beautiful formations such as Chapel Rock before the group continues on to Flagstaff for the night.

Day 6

Today you will experience the Grand Canyon! The day will be spent touring all of the best viewpoints, including a short hike into the canyon. Here, you will learn about this incredible wonder of the world and discuss a Biblical viewpoint to its origin. After pulling yourself away, you will enjoy dinner and devotions at the hotel.

Day 7

Following breakfast, it will be time to travel to the airport for the trip back home.
