Step Into the Story: 2026 Global Lift Collective Vision Trips

Each year, Global Lift Collective (GLC) invites our partners, church leaders, and friends to step beyond the conference rooms and into the field—to see firsthand how God is working through the local church to transform communities.

These trips aren’t simply visits; they’re opportunities to witness the heart of GLC’s mission in motion. Together, we’ll meet local leaders, hear stories of change, and see how churches are bringing restoration and hope to their communities.

In 2026, we’re hosting two unique experiences in each of our focus areas—one in Central America and one in Malawi—and we’d love for you to join us.

🌎 Central America Vision Trip

Dates: Tuesday, February 24 – Saturday, February 28, 2026

This trip will immerse participants in the vibrant, collaborative work happening through GLC’s Central America partners. You’ll connect with pastors and community leaders who are equipping churches to lift families out of poverty and inspire transformation across their regions.
