“We have only this life to live by faith.”
-St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Our mission trips are designed for the whole family—adults, teens, and even young children—allowing everyone to contribute in their own special way. Whether it’s helping with community events, teaching the faith, or simply being a presence of love, there’s a role for every family member. Find your mission here and see what the Lord can do with your "yes"!
Your family. Your mission.
We are open to those who have a desire to serve and are willing to commit to a period of mission immersion. This includes families and individuals from diverse backgrounds, including young adults, professionals, families, and retirees, who are seeking a deeper encounter with Christ through service.
Who
We host family mission groups to Belize City, North Dakota, and Colon Mexico. We travel to existing missions with ministries and works primarily run by SOLT priests, sisters, and lay members.
Where
Our mission experiences are designed to be shorter than traditional trips, typically 1-2 weeks. We have multiple trips year-round; keep reading to learn more and find an open trip that fits with your schedule.
When
Family missionaries build a culture of missionary discipleship within the Church. We offer support to help you form missionary disciples in your family by serving those in apostolic need through family mission trips .
Why
The SOLT Family Mission Experience is for You!
Plan Your Trip
Your family has the unique opportunity to reach the world and be forces of good, both in uncharted territory and in your own familiar homelands. The missions are designed to serve the physical and spiritual needs of the poor, meeting them where they are, embracing them with dignity, and to bring your family into life-changing encounters. We seek to accomplish every aspect of our missions in, for, and through the truth of the Catholic Faith through the charism of SOLT.
“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked, and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for is the greatest poverty.”
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
