ABOUT PARISH/ SCHOOL/ ORGANIZATION

Catholic Mission Trips, Inc., where we equip Catholics with the call to be missionary disciples. Catholic Mission Trips, Inc. had its beginnings in 1999. Inspired by St. Mother Teresa and Pope St. John Paul II, Steve Nasche, a Youth Director for a Catholic Parish, wanted to make a mission trip to let American youth experience the culture and spirituality of Mexico. Soon after, Steve had other catholic parishes joining him. Thus, the concept of Catholic Mission Trips began. We have since become a full-service ministry and lead mission trips for young people worldwide! We understand that many people would love to go on a mission trip but don’t have any connections or think it’s too difficult to plan. That is where Catholic Mission Trips, Inc. comes in. We do the planning and handle all the logistics for you. All the parish group needs to do is sign up and come. We handle everything else. We make it easy for groups to have a life-changing mission trip experience.
