About the Mission:The 2019 Mission Trip to the Philippines With Christian Outreach Ministry: Embrace and Reach International. This mission is a fifteen day trip to the Philippine Islands (July 5th - July 21st).

Additionally, the team will be providing free basketball clinics, and much more in various different regions of the Philippines.
