Bucket List Expeditions

What are Bucket List Expeditions?

At The Bucket Ministry, we don’t just talk about the work we do – we invite our donors and supporters to experience it firsthand, too. Whether it’s Kenya, Brazil, Nigeria, Honduras, Uganda, or any of our other major areas of service, we want anyone who is willing and called to see the radical life change happening around the world through this work.

If that’s you, if you want to work alongside us on the frontlines of Christian ministry in some of the darkest and most remote corners of the earth, then we strongly encourage you to look through our Bucket List Expeditions catalog below and find the trip that’s right for you!

If you don’t find any trips that work for you, your organization, or church, please reach out to us at karen@thebucketministry.org to discuss scheduling a closed trip to one of our mission fields.
