2025 Mission Trips
Our 2025 mission trips are here! Join us in serving communities across Kenya, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Whether you’re passionate about sports, healthcare, or ministry, there’s a trip for you. Each journey is a chance to share Christ’s love, build relationships, and see lives transformed.
Spring
Latin America (Adults) • May 3-10
Venture to this Caribbean island to share the greatest message of all with hundreds of people! The heart of this mission will be to personally present the message of Jesus Christ as a part of the long-term goal of establishing “house churches” where, currently, none exist. The goal is that every neighborhood have a chance to hear the gospel.
We will visit several towns and surrounding communities. Each mission participant will team up with a translator and a local Christian to visit homes and share the good news of Jesus Christ! You will learn to share the gospel effectively to all kinds of people. Many people have never heard the gospel before! Expect to be forever changed by God through this outreach experience! Spaces are limited!
Jamaica (Young Adults) • March 25 - April 1
The focus of this trip is to engage and reclaim the young adults of Jamaica by hosting an Easter crusade to reach lost and purposeless young adults. This crusade will culminate in a concert in the park featuring inspiring and lively worship, engaging speakers, spoken word, and Jamaican gospel artists. As a team, we will go into the neighborhoods, sharing the gospel and inviting young adults to attend the concert, receive Christ, and rejoin a healthy church. We will help plan and participate in this event. We will also have opportunities to minister in schools and jails and to help those experiencing homelessness.
Summer
Dominican Republic (Baseball) • June 28 - July 5
This will be our first baseball missions trip!
We have been blessed to cultivate a relationship with the community leaders of Barahona, Dominican Republic. Together we have seen remarkable improvement in the quality of life of the many Haitian immigrants who have fled here.
Many Dominican boys see baseball as a way out of poverty. On this trip, we will host a high-level baseball clinic for talented kids hungry to improve their baseball skills. We will help these young athletes achieve their goals while also equipping them with valuable life lessons. This trip offers an incredible opportunity for us to shape the hearts and minds of these budding stars by using baseball as a discipleship tool.
Dominican Republic (Basketball) • July 5-12
Over the past years, we have been blessed to cultivate a relationship with a community in Las Salinas, Dominican Republic. Many people who live here do not have running water, electricity, paved roads, or basic sanitation systems.
On this trip, we will host a basketball camp for the boys and girls in this area. About 100 kids already spend time weekly with coaches, learning the basics of the sport of basketball. We will hold a high-quality basketball camp that will not only increase the basketball skills of these young people but will also train them to succeed in life. Many of these children do not have godly role models. We will have an opportunity to be a godly example for them, encouraging them to live life God’s way!
Jamaica (Soccer) • July 19-26
This will be our first soccer missions trip!
This trip is open to participants in our OCC Soccer club. Both parents and their athletes will travel with us to Kingston, Jamaica to conduct a soccer camp and tournament.
Soccer is one of the most popular sports in Jamaica. On this trip, we will host a high-level soccer camp to hone the soccer skills of the local Jamaican students. The camp will culminate in a 1-day invitational tournament that will apply the skills and character developmental lessons learned in the camp. We hope to use the sport of soccer to be an evangelical witnessing tool and a character development tool. Our athletes parents, and coaches will have an amazing opportunity to influence the next generation and create lifelong memories!
Fall & Winter
Kenya (Men) • October 12-19
Join us on this all-men’s mission trip as we travel to Africa to host our second annual Men’s conference in Kenya!
Together with the Masai men we will explore what authentic, biblical manhood looks like cross-culturally. We will host a bull roast and learn the ways of the Masai warriors. We will have fun “manly” competitions, challenging and fun conversations, and create lasting friendships.
This will also be a great trip to bring your son or someone you are mentoring. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind, life-changing opportunity! Spaces are limited!
Latin America (Adults) • October 18-25
Join us as we share the greatest message of all with hundreds of people on this Caribbean island! We will have the rare opportunity to reach the inner city of this well-known beautiful city. Many people here have resisted the gospel because of historical and cultural baggage. Our church is uniquely equipped to connect with the local people in a way that other missions teams are unable to.
We will work with local churches excited to reach their friends and family for Christ. Each mission participant will team up with a translator and a local Christian to visit homes and share the good news of Jesus Christ! You will be trained to communicate the gospel in meaningful and powerful ways to people from all walks of life. Prepare to be transformed by God through this incredible outreach journey! Spaces are limited!
Jamaica (Students) • November 22-29
This trip is open to sophomore, junior, and senior student leaders in our One Community Church leadership program. Spaces are limited and only those who complete the requirements, commit to raising the funds and attending the training sessions will be able to attend.
During Thanksgiving break, we will travel to Montego Bay Jamaica to minister to the children and youth of Jamaica. We will share the gospel in communities, minister to school children, host an afterschool program and serve with the local church. This trip will provide incredible opportunities for each student to connect deeply with a mentor, see God working through them in unique ways, experience incredible “God moments,” and create lifelong friendships.
Kenya (Medical) • December 4-13
We are excited to announce our second medical missions trip to Kenya, where we will have the privilege of serving the Masai people. Our team will conduct a medical clinic designed to provide care for over 500 individuals.
Moreover, we aim to create lasting change by training local healthcare workers, empowering them to improve the standard of care in their community long after we leave. Our holistic approach to healing goes beyond treating immediate physical illnesses. We will rely on the transforming power of the gospel to meet the physical, mental, relational, and spiritual needs of this great community.
You don’t need to be a medical professional to join this mission! While we welcome clinical experts, we also need non-clinical team members to help support and serve in various roles. Come and be part of God’s healing ministry as we witness His work firsthand and bring hope and care to those in need. Spaces are limited!
What OCC Mission Trip Attendees Are Saying…
Jamaica
“Asked how often they pray to God, most said every day. When preparing to close one of the sessions, one young lady asked if she could pray us out. It was such a touching prayer, it gave me chills to hear the earnestness and sincerity of a prayer of praise, thanksgiving and supplication. God is definitely at work in Granville Child Care Facility and it’s clear that they see and receive God’s love from the OCC Granville Mission Team.”
– Brenda Holmes
Latin America
“This mission trip to Latin America was like nothing I could have imagined. I will never forget the love and compassion of the people I met. I felt welcomed in the homes I visited, the warm smiles, and the warmth of the people. To see the concern they had for their neighbor was surreal. I was invited in homes not as a stranger, but as a friend and I was very comfortable in the presence of people I didn’t know. I saw people loving and caring about each other. The people are so beautiful in my eyes.”
– Janice Coutain
Dominican Republic
“We started the camp Monday and by sometime Tuesday, God revealed to me that this week would be little about basketball, but more about pouring into these boys, showing them gentleness, patience and humility, while at the same time challenging them to be the best young men they could be – not really being better in basketball, but in fearing God, and in being stronger young men in their homes, schools and communities, making wise choices, thinking before acting, etc.”
– Coach Charles Williams

Fund OCC Outreach & Mission Work
God gives us good things we don’t deserve and could never earn, like grace and forgiveness. He gave the eternal gift, His son, for our sins (John 3:16) and when a follower of Christ freely and joyfully gives away their increase, whether it be money, possessions, time, or talents, they are imitating God.
You can make an eternal investment into the Kingdom of God by praying for our missionaries and by supporting them.
