Trip Description

Join us for an exciting mission trip to the Dominican Republic from August 7–15, 2026, where you'll serve alongside missionary Jamie Bello and her local ministry network. This trip provides a variety of hands-on outreach experiences designed to build relationships, meet practical needs, and share the love of Christ in creative and impactful ways. Whether you're passionate about youth ministry, sports, the arts, or community service, there will be meaningful opportunities for everyone to contribute. The trip kicks off with a university student retreat and continues with outreach throughout local neighborhoods and communities. Based on the size of our team, we may divide into smaller groups to carry out multiple ministry efforts simultaneously.

Ministry Opportunities During the Trip Include:

• Basketball camps (potentially in partnership with Give & Go – Coach Kim Kruger)
• Summerfest Day Camps with sports, arts, group games, and values-based sessions for teens and children
• Block parties and 3-on-3 basketball tournaments
• Neighborhood outreach through prayer walks and door-to-door service projects
• Kids Fun Fests in local parks or community spaces
• Backpack giveaways for local children and families
• University student retreat (August 7–8) – assist with logistics, workshops, or speaking (especially for youth pastors/leaders)

Missionary Partners

Jamie and Berly Bello (and their two sons, Logan and Ethan) serve as Assemblies of God World Missionaries in the Dominican Republic located in the Caribbean. They are also church planters, work with youth and university students (ages 12-24), and with leaders who work and invest in these students.
