See What God Is Doing in Eastern and Central Europe
Join the Global Marketplace Vision Trip – March 21–April 4, 2026
What would it look like to live and serve overseas—not as a tourist or short-term volunteer, but as someone bringing your everyday skills and faith into a global context? The Global Marketplace Vision Trip (March 21–April 4, 2026) offers families and individuals a hands-on opportunity to explore just that.
Over two weeks, travelers will journey through Eastern Europe, Croatia, and Central Europe, beginning in a major city in the Turkic-Arabic area and on through the broader region shaped by both Ottoman and European influences, where the crossroads of history and faith are visible on every street. This isn’t your typical sightseeing trip. Instead, it’s designed as a learning experience for Christians, one that connects the stories of local believers, the realities of marketplace ministry, and the beauty of cultures being renewed by God’s love.
Along the way, participants will meet marketplace professionals and Christian workers living out their faith in business, education, and community life. You’ll visit mosques, markets, and historic neighborhoods, experience the vibrant mix of traditions in Croatia, and wrap up in a major Central European city where you’ll connect with believers from across the continent. Each stop will deepen your understanding of how faith takes root in complex cultural settings.
Whether you’re a parent wondering what raising your family overseas might look like, a young professional curious about digital nomad life with purpose, or simply someone who wants to see God’s mission in action, this family-friendly trip offers a window into how everyday vocations can intersect with God’s global work. Applications are open now, with a deadline of January 15, 2026. Learn more or apply at this link, and detailed schedules are available upon request by emailing GMM@gponline.org (since we don’t post online about the locations of some of these Christian workers).
Come see how God is moving across Europe—and how your story might fit in.
