Distant Missions

Our "Distant Mission" program is extensive. Each year, nearly two-thirds of the adult population of Lost Creek will travel somewhere to engage in mission work. The foundation of our distant mission work is a long-term commitment to work in Alaska and Belize. Besides these large trip initiatives, members will also travel on teams to many other places. Lost Creek members have traveled to many places on mission including Costa Rica, Peru, Bolivia, and Israel.

Alaska Mission

Each year during the summer Lost Creek will send a mission team to Girdwood, Alaska. While there, the mission team will complete projects throughout the town in conjunction with our partner church, Girdwood United Methodist. In the past the mission team has painted, built cabins, replaced roofs, cooked for the community, helped at Vacation Bible School, and even fixed the town sign! The team hosts monthly fundraiser luncheons after worship during the Fall and Spring to help fundraise for their trip. While registration for the 2024 mission trip is closed, we invite you to fill out the form below to let us know if you're interested in joining the Alaska Mission next year!

Belize Mission

Lost Creek also holds a long-term missional commitment to our friends in Corozal and Libertad, Belize. Each summer, Lost Creek will send a group to Belize for over a week. While there, the team will help out with service projects that are needed in the area. This includes construction projects and painting. Lost Creek's main missional commitment is to help sponsor a Vacation Bible School in the cities of Corozal and Libertad for the community's children. It isn't just adults that have gone on the Belize Mission, many youth and  children have helped throughout the years. Although registration for the Belize Mission this year is closed, we invite you to fill out the form below to let us know if you're interested in joining the Belize mission next year!
