Why Short-Term Mission Trips?
Galcom International installs radio stations and distributes radios through short-term mission trips worldwide. Going on a mission trip can be a life-changing experience. It makes you take a risk, step out in faith, and allows God to use your life to make an impact on others.
Using the tool of solar-powered, fix-tuned radios with audio Bibles on them, Galcom International makes it possible for people all over the world who otherwise might never be reached to hear the Word of God.
Galcom will provide all the travel information you need, as well as the tools you need, to help you raise the prayer support and funds for your trip.
Thousands of lives have been changed as God’s Word is faithfully preached in the language of the hearer through the use of solar-powered, fix-tuned radios with audio Bibles. There are still thousands more who are thirsty for that same opportunity: to hear the Gospel.
You can change lives by handing out radios or installing a Christian radio station.
Please pray that we will be able to take teams on short-term mission trips again to provide life-giving Scriptures and radios to those who need to hear the Gospel.
Upcoming Mission Trips
2025 – Peru
From March 25 – April 3rd, a team of 6 will be going to Peru to deliver and distribute radios to prisoners who are serving time in two jails, one is in Huánuco and the other is in Pucallpa. The team will be taking 600 radios with audio Bibles in various languages. When Galcom had a team in Peru in April 2024, we left some radios with a ministry called Morada de Paz, a prison ministry. They took them to the director of the Huánuco prison, who is also the director of 3 other prisons. She could see how the radios with audio Bibles could really help the prisoners to grow in their knowledge of God. Please pray for this trip to go well. If you would like to pray with the team, please send in a request and we will send you a prayer guide.
From May 2 – 11, a team of 8 will be going to Peru to deliver and distribute radios at two ladies’ events. One is a ladies’ tea in Chosica at the Runa Simi base. There are many ladies who have moved to Lima from the Peruvian countryside in search of a better life and work. Often they have a limited understanding of Spanish and so do not understand the sermons that are preached and have a hard time growing in their faith. These ladies will come for a tea on the Sunday and we will distribute the radios with audio Bibles in various languages of Peru. Then the team will fly to Ayacucho to be involved in a ladies conference. There are many ladies who come to the Ayacucho Runa Simi base to be taught and they go back to their villages to teach other ladies what they have learned. The team will be teaching on the fruit of the Spirit and seeking to show God’s love to the ladies there. Please pray for this to be a good conference and that we can really encourage these ladies to live fruitful lives serving their families and communities.
Mid September, we are planning a trip to deliver and distribute radios with Runa Simi ministries in Peru. Why don’t you come along and see for yourself what God is doing in the Andes Mountains of Peru and be inspired to become a part of that work. You can find an application packet at the bottom of this page and you can fill it out and send it in. Someone will be in touch with you to let you know more details.
Mexico
Possible November trip to Oaxaca, Mexico to deliver audio Bibles with Audio Scripture Recordings ministry. This is in the beginning stages but if you would be interested in going on this trip, contact: alastair@galcom.org or shelley@galcom.org
Radio Installation Trips
We are still working on the dates for radio station installation trips for this year. We need people who are able to climb towers, install solar panels, do electrical work and/or set up the computer side of the radio station. Get your name on our stand-by list to install a station. The schedule depends on funding and licensing in the country where the station will be installed. You will be contacted as the need arises.
