Mission Europe 2025
International Outreach Tour
Since 2010 Paradosi has embarked on International Outreach Tours partnering with local churches, missionaries, and missional organizations in sharing the love of Jesus in their communities. We are currently in the process of fundraising to send a team this summer to share the hope of Jesus during major arts festivals and other outreach events with our ministry partners.
We need your help to go!
If you feel called to support of our next tour, please send a gift either online or by mail earmarked for our Missions Fund. We have already raised a large portion of the funds needed to go; however, we still need to raise a minimum of $12,000 before March 1 of 2025 to fund a month of ministry overseas.
Please prayerfully consider giving to our Missions fund to help send us next summer!
With heartfelt gratitude in Christ,
Jeff and Larissa
Directors
Why use the arts in evangelism?
The arts have the ability to cross cultural, social, language, and economic boundaries like no other medium. Many people in Europe have an immense appreciation for the arts and artists who practice their chosen artform well. When Paradosi is dancing in worship on the streets during outreach events, there is a noticeable change in the atmosphere that causes many to stop, watch and listen. People often do not understand the peace and joy that they are seeing and feeling. Some break down in tears while others have start to ask questions; questions that may change their life forever. It is during these times where we, along side our partners, are able to share our testimonies, pray with people, and share the truth of who Jesus is and His love for them. Sometimes we are planting seeds, sometimes we are watering seeds, but God is is always at work and is the one who makes their faith grow.
1 Corinthians 3:6-11 We feel privileged to be able to use the gifts that God has given us in dance to share His hope, love, and beauty with the world.
Why Europe? Why now? Why Ballet?
When touring internationally Paradosi frequently shares during major arts festivals and events along side local churches, missionaries, and para-church organizations helping them in the Gospel work that they are already doing in their communities. We have seen the impact that these outreach events have had and we are excited to be a part of the work that God is doing in Europe to call His people back to Him!!!
While our primary international focus has been in Europe, we are open to going to wherever God is calling us to share His message of Hope.
