Jaars Center

Mission Teams

Looking for a place where your school or church can make a global impact right here in the United States? JAARS offers many opportunities to serve the Bible translation movement.

If your church or school is looking for a place to serve the Lord right here in the United States, consider coming to JAARS to serve alongside us. We take groups of 4-20* from as near as Charlotte, North Carolina, to as far away as Southern California. You can be a part of Bible translation around the world as you give of your time here in North Carolina!

* Call and talk to us about options if you think you will have more than 20 in your group.

“The love for Jesus and Kingdom work is palpable. Everyone was friendly and made
a point to thank us. This week reminded me how precious the Word of God is—how
could I get so complacent to take it for granted? Also, I am reminded of the sacrifice
missionaries make for long, long periods of time to share Christ.”
