Upcoming Trips

Stay tuned for exciting updates! We're planning several mission trips for 2025, each designed to make a meaningful impact in communities near and far. As details are confirmed, we'll share them here, so check back soon to see how you can be part of these transformative journeys.

Mozambique 2025

Pleasant Valley has the wonderful opportunity to yet again visit Mozambique, Africa Sept 24 - Oct 5! Our team will primarily be working with "Sybil's Kids" in the town of Chokwe. We will be putting on a special day where we will make crafts, play games and have a ton of fun together! There will be an opportunity to visit some of the Sybil's Kids families and we will get to hear how they're doing, encourage them and spend some time praying for them. The team will spend time at Sybil's school, and will support Sybil in anything else she would like us to be a part of during our week in Mozambique.
