Experience Mission Reviews 

I would 100% recommend Experience Mission to anyone especially the IMMERSION trips! Having been on a 3 month South Africa Immersion Trip it was an incredibly positive experience all around. This is how Missions trip should be; coming alongside community partners and building relationships!

The Lord works in mysterious ways and it’s the moments you expect God to show up the least that He shows up the most. Throughout my time in South Africa, I not only got to know a different culture and country, I got to know an entirely different people group. I got to learn their names, hear their stories, share my stories and build relationships that never would’ve happened if I decided not to go and backed out. Trust me, I had every opportunity to, but when you allow God to do a work in your life and also pour into your life through relationships with others. It’s a truly indescribable experience of what God takes you through and how He brings you to the other side.

best organization, one of my best experience so far

I was on the first ever 3 Month Namibia Immersion team. This was the absolute best thing I have ever done in life. I learned so much about myself and God. I also made some friends who will last a lifetime. All I can say is GO and immerse yourself.

This was a wonderful experience that exceeded any and all expectations.

The only reason that I am giving four stars was because I was frustrated with feeling like I was clueless as to what was happening with the budget. It was a Covid year so I do understand the difficulties but I just wish that it was more transparent with us. Other than that I loved the experience. Experience Mission was a great way to see the body of Christ in action. EM provides all the opportunities for YOU to make the best of your trip.

The Lord used this time to point out areas of my life that needed to change. Being surrounded by imperfect but committed believers in a new environment is a bigger blessing than you can imagine. I hope that if you read this, that you choose to set aside time to break from the rush of American life. It’s worth it. I promise.

This organization is so great for mission trips very organized and reliable! Had the most amazing experience

Experience Mission has the best, most supportive staff that are there to help prepare, encourage, and guide you on your trip. I couldn't wish for a better organization to go on a trip with. I am blown away by the level of excellence they have provided!

This trip was truly life-changing and enriching in so many more ways than I could have ever expected. I grew so much in my walk with the Lord, and I had the chance to love and serve so many of His people. Even through challenges and hard days, the Lord was faithful and so so good. I would highly recommend going on an IMMERSION trip. If you are willing and open, the Lord can use you in mighty ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus in a context that's very different from your own. What a beautiful opportunity.

Overall immersion is a wonderful program and it truly does work. An experience is what you make it, if you are focused on all the negatives you will miss everything else. It’s important to remember that you are there to serve the Lord. It’s not about you it’s about Him. Keep the Main thing the Main thing and you will be blessed beyond your wildest dreams.

I went to South Africa and helped out in different communities there. I built relationships, worked on different projects, and saw amazing locations such as Kruger National Park.

While my daughter’s 6 month Africa mission started out fine, when the Coronavirus hit midway through their trip, the young people were abandoned. They were told to find their own way home. Absolutely NO help from the leaders of this organization. The young people had spotty WIFI, so it was left to the parents to scramble to find tickets home. Not only did we lose all of the money we gave Experience Missions, we had to purchase a very expensive ticket home. After 3 days , our daughter was able to make it home, but 3 people in her group were unable to get out before the border closed. They spent weeks in Africa before being rescued by the US embassy . Experience Mission refused to help our young people, had no plan for if something like this happened. They never apologized, and even made it hard to contact them for answers. My daughter and the others felt totally abandoned and let down. This organization is totally irresponsible with the lives of those on their trips. I wish my daughter had gone with a different mission group.

I love what this program stands for. 5/5 stars!

The communities as served in were absolutely incredible, and it truly changed my life.

The staff was so helpful and God showed up! EM Africa is doing incredible work throughout South Africa and I am blessed to have been a part of it! Hein and his family are faithful to the mission and are so encouraging to be around!!

So thankful to have found an organization that boldly follows the Lord and is based about Christ centered relationships. The Lord is truly moving through the EM staff and every team member. Boldly following the Lord is always the best option!

Love EM! I grew in my faith, had once in a lifetime experiences, got a new perspective on life, and made friends/mentors that will stay with me for a lifetime.

Top-rated businesses in the Religious Institutions category

I learned and experienced a lot. I was able to witness to many and see Jesus work. However, EM has a lot they need to work on, they have a multitude of areas they need to work on. Their communication with each other and with team members is terrible. Their standard of conduct is not well monitored and kept up. They have no good emergency plans. I could go on but I don't want to include things that may affect other people. I do not recommend this organization and I will never be associated with them again.

Experience Mission is an incredible, God-centered organization that puts the dignity of ALL God’s people second to none. Their staff is world class, each of them love God and love people to their bones. The training is adequate and eye-opening; and the trip is life-altering. I recommend them for any sort of trip you’re looking to take. From 2 week to gap year, there isn’t another organization that I would suggest over them. I personally did Caribbean immersion and it was a great time of growth in my life. I wish I could relive it often. The relationships I formed will last a lifetime.
