what happens on a Newday Global team?

Newday Global teams are hosted by church plants in different European cities so that you can have a real taste of what it’s like to plant a church in another culture! For part of your time on a team you will be involved in some way with the life of the church that is hosting you, possibly through children’s summer clubs, leading a service etc. You will also be out and about in the city as a team, prayer walking, worshipping on the streets, serving in other creative ways and having lots of fun!

Where will I stay?
Teams stay in rented accommodation (villa/cottage) that will either be near the location of the church plant or the city centre and you will use public transport to travel around the city.

Where/what will I eat?
Part of the Newday Global experience is to taste life in the local culture and so, as a team, you will shop for food locally and cook for yourselves. You will also eat at local restaurants and possibly with the church sometimes.

What do my fees cover?
