Step One: Bring together a team.


Our Team
Ok, so if you are planning a short term missions trip, this isn't actually the first step. But, for our team, this is the first step of our journey to Athens, Greece.

International Teams: Russia is officially active!

Each member of this team has a unique story of how and why they are involved in this trip. God has given us His provision in finances and time. The Russian's visas were approved on Friday.


Team Lunch
Our team spent Monday in a concentrated training session and orientation. We sorted out pre-trip details and set some guidelines to make our excursion to Athens as safe and effective as possible. Lance Corley taught about cultural intelligence (as seen in the book, Serving with Eyes Wide Open... by David Livermore).

IT Russia embarks this afternoon for Athens, Greece. We will be working alongside IT USA's Athens Refugee Team and Lost Coin. [read about IT Athens here]

Our team hopes to serve the refugee, as well as be an encouragement to the team that is well established in Athens.


Athens Greece
Please Pray:
For safe travel in wake of recent airline disasters and scares.
For team unity in spirit and heart.
For language and cultural barriers to melt away.

This page will remain updated throughout our trip with pictures and stories from our team (по-английский и по-русский!), so make sure to bookmark us and visit often!
