I want to do something next summer (or during the school year, doesn’t matter) and get involved in international outreach mission work. Next summer I’ll be a junior in highschool, so I don’t know what’s available to me or how to find a organization. I know I can get better information from my church and everything, but right now I’m just sifting my options and figuring out how to find a group or organization to go with, where it’s going, and what I’ll be expected to do… be it relational, physical or aiding. I’m in southern Oklahoma/texoma area, if that helps.
Find one that actually goes to help people, not just as a religious selling tool.

My wife went on a week-long missions trip to Mexico when she was in high school. I’ll bet there’s a trip going down there sometime soon that you can get involved with.
If you’re going to do research on different options, just remember to get in contact with reputable organizations – your church should be connected to people that can send you in the right direction, depending on what languages you might speak and what culture you’re looking to work with.
Good luck!
(And ignore the trolls)
