What is Mission Ghana?
Mission Ghana is a chance to serve God and the people of Central West Africa while experiencing a culture and people completely different than that of the United States.
Where do we go and what do we do?
Missionaries travel to Ho, Ghana and work with our partner Pastor Sam Dunya and GlobeServe in several community service projects. Projects include medical clinics and general health education, water purification and farming.

A $150.00 non-refundable deposit is due upon registration. Registration forms can also be found at the Mission Center. Background checks will be conducted by Hope on all mission trip applicants ages 18 and older. This is to ensure the safety and protection of all mission team members and the people we serve. If you’ve had a background check run by Hope in the last three years, a new one will not be needed.
