Praying Pelican Missions exists to inspire unity within the global Church. As an interdenominational ministry, we seek to celebrate the variety of the Church while leveraging what binds us together. There is no more powerful example of God’s love to a community than when His people come together to serve and advance the Gospel, all in the name of Jesus.

Each year, we set up and lead mission trips for churches, small groups, families, and individuals, continually expanding and strengthening a network of pastors and communities both abroad and in the United States. Our trips are built around three main pillars for healthy short-term missions: genuine partnerships, long-term relationships, and sustainable ministry.

Through Praying Pelican Missions, more than 50,000 short-term missionaries have served in over 450 different communities throughout our locations. As lives are touched and hearts are transformed, there is an increasing number of pastors, churches, and communities inviting mission teams to serve alongside them through Praying Pelican Missions. We are continually amazed to witness and be part of God's movement in the world, from Chicago to Costa Rica to South Africa and everywhere in between.
