Make a Global Impact

As we are on mission together, we take Jesus’ command to “make disciples of all nations” seriously (Matt. 28:19). We are honored to support and partner with ministries all over the world to help them make disciples who are fully alive in Jesus.

Global Partners

Plainfield Christian Church partners with different missionaries and organizations around the world. Learn more about our partners, missionaries, church plants, and next gen partnerships.

 

We want everyone to be Fully Alive, both here in our community and around the world. That's why we're partnering with GO Ministries to plant ten churches in the community of Gurabo, part of the city of Santiago, Dominican Republic between now and the end of 2028.

This is an amazing opportunity for our church to make a big difference in this community. We want everyone in our church family to pray for this ministry. As Elvis Jaquez, the Gurabo Network Leader, and his team work to plant churches, we will also send teams down to help them with their work.

Trip Dates: July 1-8, 2025

What will we do?

  • We will split our time between a variety of different ministries to help the church planting team in Gurabo, a community in Santiago, Dominican Republic. These include light construction and service projects, children’s ministry, and building relationships with church leaders and community members.
  • This is a discipleship experience, not just a service opportunity. We want to learn from our partners in the Dominican Republic. Each day, team members will have a time for devotions. They will also debrief with their fellow team members each day to grow and learn together.

Where will we stay?

  • We will stay in GO Ministries team housing/dormitories. We will eat a variety of island foods. Rice, beans, chicken, and fruit are staples in the Dominican Republic.

What will we do to prepare for the trip?

  • We will have three team meetings before the trip to help us prepare. We will also have a team party after the trip to celebrate with our families.

What will the trip cost?

  • Estimated trip cost is $2250 ($1250 to GO Ministries plus airfare and travel insurance). This does not cover the cost of other necessities such as a passport, meals during travel, spending money, and medications. Participants are encouraged to fundraise for their trips. Fundraising training will be provided. 
  • Participants that are part of Plainfield Christian Church are eligible for a reduced rate. The church will cover the payment to GO Ministries (a $1250 value), which will reduce the estimated cost to $1000. Participants may receive this reduced rate for one trip.
