2026 Sport for Life Golf Camp
Vasteras, Sweden - June 2026!
In 2026, Southeast Christian Church will send a mission team to serve at Sport for Life’s Golf Camp in Västerås, Sweden—a unique opportunity to combine faith and sport in a meaningful way. This 9-day trip (including travel) is open to adults 18 and over, with a maximum team size of 8. The camp is designed to reach youth through the game of golf, and team members will serve as either golf instructors or small group leaders. While experienced golfers are needed to provide coaching and instruction on the course, others can engage relationally by spending the day with campers and facilitating small group discussions centered on life and faith. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just passionate about sharing Christ through relationships, there’s a role for everyone on this team.
There are a few requirements to attend this trip.
1. Complete a Southeast Volunteer Application sent to you by Short-Term Missions.
2. Complete the online MinistrySafe online training send to you from the Short-Term Missions ministry.
3. All trips require a deposit, which is non-refundable. The IRS considers all monies going towards a mission trip as a charitable donation. To comply with IRS guidelines, we are unable to refund any monies submitted.
