OLu Missions

Our child came home [from NART] with such a happy and full heart and wants to go back! As parents, we are just so grateful for such an amazing program that OLu offers the kids. Nothing is more beautiful than seeing the growth of faith in Jesus Christ.

OLu Parent

Equipping and training students to express the love of Jesus and to glorify Him in their everyday lives.

Since 2000, thousands of Lancers have served nearly 400,000 hours in twenty countries on six continents. And each year, hundreds of learners have shared God’s love and His saving grace message of salvation through service to others. OLu Missions combines outreach and on-campus ministries with coursework as learners choose to serve in a variety of ways, including construction projects, disaster relief, elderly care, and children’s clinics. These experiences provide opportunities to learn techniques for effectively working across cultural, religious, and national boundaries while fostering positive mental health and well-being.

The mission of Orange Lutheran is to help students internalize the Gospel message of salvation in Christ Jesus, and the Missions program offers a hands-on way to do so.

Missions Trips 2024 - 2025

Mission trips offer opportunities for students to share and experience Christ’s love through serving others. Annual trips include serving on the Paiute Reservation in Bishop, CA and the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky. OLu Missions has been the hands and feet of Jesus in more than ten countries worldwide. All students are strongly encouraged to participate in a Missions trip beginning in their freshman year, as no prerequisites or prior experience are needed.
