Mexico

8 -10 days — all ages

Why SOAR?

70% of young adults are leaving the church

Of those staying in the church 90% have done some kind of mission outreach.

Our communities need Jesus’ presence

Soar has been working with a diverse group of ministries & churches to live out Jesus’ presence for over 10 years. 

The Church needs to come TOGETHER.

Churches each have their own strengths & weaknesses, SOAR brings churches together from across the province for a brief but focused time of community, worship, teaching & ministry.

SOAR Mexico - Pacific District & East of the Rockies

SOAR gives you the opportunity to experience God’s love for a city in Mexico. Your eyes will be opened. Your heart will be changed. Whether you come on your own or with a team, you’ll work closely with inner-city churches and ministries that are seeing the life-changing power of God at work in peoples’ lives.

Be a part of introducing others to the One who says, 

“I am the resurrection and the life” (John 11.25).

You’ll be amazed at what God can do in you and through you in ten days.

How do I join?

Step #1

Gather your SOAR team

expand to see highlights
  • SOAR is meant to be experienced as a team. Every individual will experience Jesus different through SOAR, but much of the ministry and processing happens as a team unit. 
  • Do you have a passion for mission and hope that it will grow in your own church? Tap a few people on the shoulder and invite them to come on SOAR with you.
  • A SOAR team can be any combination of youth, young adults, families, singles and seniors but all with a heart to encounter Jesus and His Mission. Teams can range in size from 3 - 30+ people. A lot of the teams that come are youth groups, but SOAR is not only meant for youth. SOAR exists to help churches connect with Jesus and ministry opportunities. Because of the intensity of SOAR both spiritually and emotionally we recommend that no one under the age of 13 come unless accompanied by a parent or guardian to help them process their experience.

  • Signing up your team helps the SOAR leadership prepare and plan for this year’s SOAR program. Click this button to start your registration process. The team leader will start the registration process but then everyone from the group will individually submit their own registrations after a request from the team leader.

Step #3
Prepare to come on SOAR

expand to see highlights
As you prepare your team for SOAR here are some steps to getting ready:
    1. Raise the finances: Each group has a different way of raising the amount needed for SOAR so as a team you can decide how you want to do this. The amount for SOAR is a donation so you will receive a tax receipt for your payment. 

    2. Meet as a team: It is good to meet a couple of times before SOAR to get to know each other better and get a better understanding of what to expect on SOAR.

    3. Find a mentor: We recommend that everyone coming on SOAR have someone to be able to process both the preparation for SOAR and debrief their experience. 

Questions about SOAR

Will this work for my group?

We strive to make SOAR accessible to all ages and group makeup. There are bursaries available for those that don’t have the financial resources. We desire for you to encounter Jesus’ heart for mission and will work with you to set up a ministry that suits your group.
Connect with an experienced SOAR Leader

No one can answer your questions better than an experienced SOAR leader. They have worked through all the questions that you will likely have and have a passion to share about their experience. Contact me and I will connect you with an experienced leader that has led a group similar to yours.

Orientation

ORIENTATION: (2 days)

  • Be prepared - Your SOAR experience begins with 2 days of spiritual formation, team building, and ministry training.

Assignment

This is the heartbeat of SOAR. The Ministry Assignments are designed for each team to work alongside an already established ministry or church. Prior to SOAR, we connect each team leader with the church/ministry leader, to discuss the ministry opportunity in greater detail.

Here is an overview of what some groups may be doing: They will do a mix of working with our local churches in what they need- children's ministry, sports outreach, some work projects.  As well as some different social ministries- sandwiches to immigrants, helping in orphanages, handing out food for families at hospitals, outreach in our new mission of Punto Vida.

Debrief

How you end a team ministry assignment significantly influences how you remember your entire experience. Before returning home, two days are taken to provide a time to rest, rejuvenate, process, and celebrate what God has done.  Emphasis is placed on bringing closure to your experiences and affirming principles and commitments that can be transferred to your own communities.
