Students International leads short-term missions that ‘help without hurting’. That’s why every SI student joins a full-time missionary who works year-round sharing Christ through vocational ministry. We love seeing God transforming the lives of students AND communities in need.
At Dayspring, we partner with Student International to take our DSM Students to the Dominican Republic.

World Partners connects North American churches and our partners in multi-national networks together to make disciples of all nations. Our partners may be American or citizens of any country worldwide. Our aim is to send, equip, network, and multiply disciple-makers to see disciple-making movements launched around the globe. Our work is guided by the three basic elements needed for a relational, Jesus-centered disciple-making movement.
At Dayspring, we partner with World Partners to help over 110 missionaries in 110 different countries.

On a typical Nicaragua mission trip, the team partners with the church in Tipitapa through a variety of ministries—helping with the feeding program, leading an all-church service with games, music, and teaching, and spending a special day with sponsored children. The team also hosts dedicated events for Dayspring sponsor kids, distributes food to families in need, and leads VBS sessions for both younger and older children.

The Dominican Republic Missions trip for DSM was a faith-based mission journey. During their time in the DR, they served local communities through outreach and ministry, built connections with locals, and shared worship and cultural experiences. Through the mission trip, they also had times of personal growth and reflection, as students saw lives touched — both theirs and others. Altogether, the trip blended service, friendship, faith, and cross-cultural experience into a meaningful, life-changing opportunity for everyone involved.
