Service Adventure doesn’t just place young people in communities — it plants seeds of peace, connection, and hope that continue to grow long after participants leave.
As a flagship program of Mission Network, Service Adventure invites young adults ages 17–20 into a transformative 10-month gap-year experience. Participants live in intentional community, engage in hands-on service, and explore a faith that actively pursues peace.
Your support helps mobilize the next generation of peacemakers.
Donate today to invest in young adults who are choosing service over indifference and peace over division. Every gift empowers more communities to experience the healing power of presence, relationship, and faithful action.
While participants experience profound personal growth, the greatest impact ripples outward into the communities they serve. Each Service Adventure unit is deeply embedded in a local neighborhood, partnering with a sponsoring Mennonite congregation and vital nonprofit organizations.
Together, they create real, tangible peace:
- Strengthening nonprofits with dedicated volunteers who expand services to those most in need
- Revitalizing churches by energizing youth ministries and building bridges across generations
- Cultivating future peacebuilders who return home or stay locally as committed leaders and servants.
