Mission Trips

Learn more about our recent mission trips and apply for the upcoming trips as we join in the journey being found in, formed by and following Jesus.

Hurricane Relief Trip

In Asheville, we assisted the Dream Center with organizing relief supplies, assembling generators, and partnering with the Big Ivy community, where we mucked out houses, removed insulation, and gathered materials to be used for rebuilding. To see “stuff” 10 feet above your head and realizing that where one was standing only three weeks ago was underwater is humbling. Rebuilding will be a long process, and another trip is planned for Spring Break next year. Your support will allow us to return and contribute to the rebuilding process.

Ireland Mission Trip

We served alongside Irish Christians in a variety of compassionate programs from creating care packages for needy new mothers, to getting our hands dirty in the building remodel happening at the local church. We learned about Christianity in an ever-increasing secularized Ireland; through workshops, site visits, and guided discussions raising our cultural awareness and gaining helpful insights that will inform our own American Christian experience. We had fun while enjoying the Irish landscapes with trips to desired sites, shopped in the bustling city of Dublin, and checked out famous landmarks.

honduras Mission Trip

Harderwyk Ministries has been sending teams to support Jake and Rachel Compaan at Abundant Life Christian School since 2010, beginning our work in LaUnion and most recently serving in Yamaranguila. Over the years we have worked on building of classrooms, offices, restrooms, sports courts, and during our trip in June we helped with the preparation and building of a new nurses’ office on the school campus, allowing the school to meet one of the criteria for their certification in the country. We were also able to spend time painting one of the homes at Talitha Cumi, a neighboring ministry that serves children and also the property the houses our teams when we are in Yamaranguila.
