2026 Short-term Opportunities to Serve!
Have you ever wondered if God might be calling you into long-term missions? Maybe you’ve felt the tug to serve overseas, but you’re not sure where to begin. At ACTION, we believe one of the best ways to explore that call is through short-term missions — hands-on, real-life ministry experiences that allow you to see God at work and discover how He might use your gifts for His glory.
That’s why we’re excited to share the release of our 2026 ACTION Short-Term Mission Catalog!
This year’s catalog is packed with opportunities to serve alongside passionate field workers and local leaders in:
Austria, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Honduras, India, Nepal, Mexico, The Middle East, the Philippines, South Africa, Zambia, and the USA.
From teaching English in Nepal to helping with children’s programs in Honduras, supporting outreach in South Africa, or using your professional skills in Austria or Mexico — there’s a place for you to serve and grow.
Why Go Short-Term?
Short-term trips aren’t just about traveling; they’re about transformation — in the lives of those you serve and in your own heart.
Through a few weeks or months on the mission field, you’ll have the chance to:
Experience God’s work firsthand in diverse cultures
Build relationships with field workers and local believers
Develop new ministry skills and cross-cultural understanding
Discern God’s direction for future long-term service
Our short-term opportunities range from two weeks to six months, with several of our fields also ready to host teams for one to two weeks. Every placement is personally coordinated by our ACTION Field Workers or trusted partners who are eager to welcome mission-minded individuals ready to serve.
Ready to Explore?
If you’re looking to take a step of faith, deepen your understanding of missions, or test whether God may be leading you toward long-term service, this catalog is for you.
