What We Do

GoCorps works to make two years of global missional service a normalized, accessible next step to Christian students and young professionals of all majors and backgrounds.  We place motivated recent grads to use their degree alongside long-term projects sharing the hope of Christ and addressing physical needs.

3.14 billion people are "unreached" by the gospel

65% of the world live in religiously restricted areas

1.45 billion people in the world live in poverty

The Opportunity

God is already at work. And we see new ways to join him.

Skill-Based Placements

Traditional missionaries with Bible degrees often have difficulty acquiring visas in regions with the least access to the gospel. A more strategic method is placing people with practical skills and applied degrees–in medicine, engineering, business, job creation, IT, education, social work, and more–to serve in gospel roles.

Two-Year Placements

We believe in the strategy of two-year placements. We consider it the sweet spot for most grads, between the open-ended commitment of long-term service and the limited influence of short-term trips. Two years is long enough to meaningfully engage in a culture and become conversational in the local language, both key factors to making significant contributions to long-term projects.

I went into my two years open to wherever God leads. I didn’t have plans for after the two years and that openness allowed me to fall in love with Thailand, the people, and the work.

I am so grateful for the way GoCorps has worked patiently with with me as my original placement fell through and I had to wait and trust God with where to go next.

My time with GoCorps was challenging, growing, exciting, and overall life-giving. The one-on-one coaching and meetings were super helpful in expressing fears, anxieties, and the excitement that comes along with thinking about moving overseas.
