The International Service and Missions Program seeks to involve students in cross-cultural service and ministry experiences during their Summer break. The Agapé Center’s International Service Trip experience is designed to help students learn about themselves and the culture and people of the host country.
The Agapé Center has long-term, reciprocal partnerships with Food for the Hungry in Torotoro, Bolivia; Dulce de Nombre de Jesus, Nicaragua; and La Mina, Dominican Republic. The Agapé Center also recently began a new partnership with Polish Christian Ministries (PCM).
