Salerno, Italy
Why go to a country that is saturated with Christianity? Its a longer discussion, but simply put… it used to be that way. Now, only 2% of the population is involved in any form of Christian church. And worse, less than 1% of young peoples are involved. This means that tomorrows leaders are not going to make things better.
Our connection is through friends of Adam Bennett. Follow Justin Valiquette to learn more about his heart for Italy and why he and his family are returning to Salerno to plant a new church.

India
This trip is organized and led by First Baptist Church of Covington, LA and we have been given to opportunity to step outside our comfort zone in a country and a people in desperate need of Jesus Christ.
Why Go?
This mission trip will include a medical clinic which will minister to both the spiritual and physical needs of the people. Medical camps are set up with the help of native Dalit missionaries to minister to the needs of the Dalit people of India. This is done to help them physically and to open hearts and doors for the native Dalit missionaries to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ into local villages.
Who Should Go?
Christian medical professionals who have a heart for mission work and evangelism, and believers who are compassionate and willing to give their time to help people physically so that they can have a chance to be healed.
