Find out more about mission teams!

We love having mission teams serve with us at City of Hope in Tanzania!

Over the years, many teams from churches, schools, and other organizations have been a wonderful blessing to our children and staff in Tanzania - while learning more about another culture, the challenges facing people in another country - and how God is at work changing lives!

Everyone benefits from Hopeco mission teams!

Mission team members have an opportunity to grow their personal faith, understanding of culture, and awareness of how God is working in Tanzania.
For some team members, mission trips help cultivate a calling to long-term mission work and engagement through prayer and partnership.
HopeCo Church Partners experience fresh excitement for their mission programs as they invest and learn from the team at City of Hope.
The children and staff at City of Hope are encouraged and feel valued as they experience the care of team members. Meaningful cross-cultural relationships, learning, and spiritual growth result from friendships built.
HopeCo and City of Hope benefit from the practical support and expertise provided by teams, as well as longer-term engagement with team members.

At HopeCo, we are committed to excellence!

We have adopted these seven “Standards of Excellence” for mission teams:

Christ-Centeredness: We seek first God’s glory and the growth of His kingdom.
Empowering Partnerships: Relationships are healthy, interdependent, and focused on mutual trust and accountability.
Mutual Design: Our teams benefit both the participants and overseas partners.
Comprehensive Administration: We demonstrate integrity and excellence in promoting, delivering, and supporting teams.
Qualified Leadership: We train, develop, and support capable leadership for our teams.
Appropriate Training: We prepare and equip people to serve before, during, and after their trip.
Thorough Follow-Through: Evaluations, debriefs, and learning are part of our team program.
