Trevecca Around the Globe

Trevecca Around the Globe (TAG) is an annual opportunity for Trevecca students to catch a vision of God at work in our world and to take part in the redemptive story that God is writing across all of creation. With trips during both spring and summer breaks, TAG provides young adults with meaningful and transformative service-learning experiences.

Service-learning is a form of experiential learning where students develop knowledge and critical thinking skills while addressing genuine community needs. TAG presents Trevecca students with service-learning trips that will grow the student's understanding of our God, our neighbors and our engagement with the world as Christ-followers.

Wasilla, Alaska

Date: July 6-20, 2024 | Cost: $2,000

The Alaska summer team will focus on community engagement projects and a youth camping initiative. The team will work directly with Frontline Mission, a Nazarene Compassionate Ministry that tackles food insecurity, poverty alleviation, and health care and hygiene needs. Trevecca students will lead Alaskan youth in a spiritual time while camping the first week, and will focus on children's activities and community engagement the second week.

Abjijan, Cote D’Ivoire (Ivory Coast, West Africa)

Date: May 9-21, 2024 | Cost: $3,300

Students traveling to the Ivory Coast will be exposed to a culture and a part of the world that are different from their own experiences. The focus of this service-learning opportunity will be relational, working specifically in community development with the Street Boys ministry through which local Nazarene churches are already doing great work. Street Boys in Abijan helps young boys in finding a deeper purpose for their lives, and Trevecca students will be a catalyst for encouragement and engagement to assist them in this important work. Students will work with these young men to create community events in their context; collaborate on service projects with local college students; and engage in the work of the Nazarene Health Clinic.

Creative Access

Date: May 14-25, 2024 | Cost: $3,300

It will involve language immersion, cultural training, historical location visits and numerous opportunities to engage with local residents. The focus of this trip is hospitality and what it means to be a guest in a home and country that are different from your own.
