Before you go, get ready to grow

Short-term trip training is an essential part of every GO InterNational experience. Before stepping onto foreign soil, we help team members prepare spiritually, emotionally, and practically for what’s ahead.

There is a method to our mission, a process that begins with preparation and ends with partnership.

This isn’t just about travel details, but learning to see mission differently. When we train well, we serve well.

Why it matters

A well-prepared team is a blessing, not a burden. Training turns good intentions into meaningful impact by helping participants focus less on what they do and more on who they become.

Your preparation is your first act of service - and it’s what makes everything else possible.
