About GEM Teams

GEM Teams provides opportunities for exciting short-term mission teams
to help build the Kingdom of God in Europe.

GEM Teams provides opportunities for exciting short-term mission teams to
help build the Kingdom of God in Europe. With 30 years of experience in
organizing and leading teams of volunteers in Europe, we assist with
practical services as well as facilitating evangelistic outreach efforts.

GEM Teams does the preparation work by networking with ministries in Europe
in need of help. We then coordinate the details between the local ministries
and the short-term team and then provide staff to lead the team while they
are on the ground, to ensure an effective time of ministry together. GEM
Teams works hard to give each team experiences in European culture. Teams
get to interact with nationals, working side-by-side during the project and
often sharing meals. Time for an excursion beyond the “work-site” makes sure
that this is more than just about the ‘project’. Teams get a glimpse into
the life and ministry of those they are serving.

GEM Teams looks for church-based teams and individuals that are willing to
invest their time and talents to serve God and bring Him Glory. Professional
skills and experience are appreciated, and necessary for certain projects,
but willing hands coupled with a willing heart are required on every team.

Team sizes vary depending on the project. Mature young adults (15 and up) are
welcome with adequate older adult supervision. Durations for the trips vary
between 10 and 14 days.
