Church Engagement
“Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20

Each of these trips is open to members of UBA churches. Contact the church to find out details about each specific trip.

Athens, Greece
May 15-25, 2023
$2500 – includes ground transportation, housing, meals, insurance
Walk the steps of Paul across Greece. Visit Athens, ancient Corinth, Ancient Philippi, Thessaloniki. Stand on Mars Hill where Paul preached to the Athenians. See the jail in Philippi where Paul and Silas were imprisoned. See the Bema Seat where Paul was taken before the tribunal in Corinth.
Plus you will do outreach to Syrian, Iranian, Afghan refugees who are looking for hope. We will work with local ministries and churches who are impacting the lives of many former muslims from the Middle East as well as the poor and unreached in Athens. This is a unique time as so many who have lived in closed countries are coming to Europe where the gospel can be openly shared. We must take advantage of this open door of opportunity.
