Acts 1:8 (NIV) "... you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Never before has there been a time when so many Christians can so literally fulfill this verse! Today you can fly to almost any part of the world, find a welcoming band of brothers and sisters, and be a witness for Christ. "

"Short-term missions" - sharing your faith overseas for a period of less than two months - has been the single most important change in the way missions is done in the last 2000 years.

Dominican Advance is positioned to provide you with a unique opportunity to experience the mission field - especially if you have never been on a mission trip before. Because the Dominican Republic is the most popular tourist destination in the Caribbean (nearly 3 million tourists visit these shores every year), you can minister to some of the Western Hemisphere's most needy people during the day, then return in the evening to an air conditioned hotel room on the beach to rest, meditate, and recharge for the next day's "Dominican advance".

It's a life changing experience for individuals Christians, youth groups, men's and women's ministries, and for future missionary candidates. Choose from three different packages:

Trip Package #1

Discoverers & Explorers

Enjoy a vacation at a Caribbean resort while discovering our ministry and the needs of every day Dominicans! Tour the villages, meet the people who minister there, attend church, and have plenty of time for sun, surf, ATV rides, zip-line adventures in the jungle, and Ocean World. Great family adventure and well suited for church retreats.

Trip Package #2

Sowers & Reapers

Combine vacation and ministry! You will not only see first hand what Dominican Advance does but you'll work side by side with us by helping in schools, churches, medical clinics, children ministry and much more. In addition, your free time is yours to relax and enjoy recreation in the Dominican. This trip is ideal for teams with multiple interests and for "first-time" missionaries.

Trip Package #3

Laborers in the Harvest

For the mission-minded only! Leave the "fun and sun" to others and make all your time here count. This trip is for those who want to work a full schedule each day and leave having accomplished their goal. This trip needs to be scheduled at least six months in advance so the project can be well-defined, organized, and furnished. Your sacrifice and expertise are welcome.

We also encourage teachers, instructors, pastors, and equippers to bring their gifts to the Dominican Republic to help train Dominicans. Special "teaching and training" trips can also be scheduled.
