Today is the day!! Our team gathered this morning at RIC at 4:15am, we’ve made it through security, and have boarded our flight! Our team is ready to GO! We’ll update as we’re able throughout the day here and on Instagram! Follow us @2819ministries!

Wow! It’s hard to believe that tomorrow morning our team of 21 people will be on a plane heading to Belize for our 2024 Mission Experience! We’ve experienced so many miracles in this season leading up to this trip. We’ve seen people give sacrificially. We’ve seen people serve with abundant joy. We’ve seen people pray […]

We were up this morning around 6 or 6:30 to start getting ready for our day. We enjoyed breakfast in the common area before starting our […]

Surprise! Our board members (minus a few) are in Belize! We are so excited to be back at our home away from home. Over the last several weeks we’ve been running a campaign called Joy to the World, and it’s not over yet! Some of you have supported a child or purchased The Great Rescue […]

As the sun set on a week filled with high energy programs during our Mission Experience, our team could never have expected the move of God they would witness on Friday night.
