Trip Details

Every follower of Jesus is called to help fulfill the Great Commission of making disciples of all nations. This November, proclaim the good news of Jesus to those who have never heard in a country with little access to the gospel. Join us in Dubai as we travel the country with Greenhouse missions partners and use the arts as a way to connect!

With 1.9 billion Muslims globally, Islam is the 2nd largest and fastest-growing religion in the world. But more Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus than at any other time in history.

  • Experience life with a Live Dead missions team. Hear their stories and get to know the individuals who are reaching Muslims with the love of Jesus.
  • Dive into Emirati and Arab culture. Experience the richness of life among the Arab people and gain a deeper understanding of the need for missions and church planting among Arab Muslims.
  • Receive a hands-on introduction to church planting work among unreached people groups (including language learning, intercession, missiology training, and interaction with the local unreached community).
  • See for yourself some of the beauty and challenges of following Jesus in the Arab World, as a part of the global church.
  • Grow closer to God’s heart for you and His plan to include your giftings in the incredible work He’s doing worldwide.
  • Participate in Dubai Design Week, a comprehensive program full of exhibitions, workshops, and creative experiences.
