Testimonials

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. My coach helped find the perfect placement for me because she listened to my passions and skills-set, she asked tough questions about what was holding me back, and she was there with me through all the fundraising fears. GoCorps' Support Raising Model is absolutely incredible. Not only did I grow a greater understanding of the Biblical basis for support-raising, but I was also fully funded in less than 3 months (thanks be to God). I felt completely supported by GoCorps and their staff throughout the process, and I also felt equipped to have support-raising meetings. Being 100% funded by partners was a large fear of mine, but with the help of GoCorps, that fear was lessened. GoCorps was such a great fit for me and I would recommend to anyone thinking about working overseas to consider them. (Apr. 2023)

One aspect of the GoCorps process that was helpful for me going overseas was the Support Raising Model. It was helpful to be informed on the topic, trained and be accountable while doing it. The model was a great way of trusting in God to provide while also practically engaging in the work of building a team of supporters for God's work. (Apr. 2023)

In my experience, GoCorps was incredibly valuable in helping me fundraise and navigating the support process. They spend an immense amount of time training and researching in order to truly guide and encourage the goer towards their goal. I am thankful for the time and investment GoCorps has made in me from the very beginning until the end of my commitment! (Feb. 2023)

Two years sounds like a daunting amount of time to commit, but its so valuable and the time flies by really fast! I appreciated the support raising models and how I did it in a few months vs. years. Just say yes because you have no idea how God can use you, shape, or grow you in 2 years overseas! (Jul. 2022)

GoCorps was a great way to see all of the options of ministries and organizations out there all in one place. They were an organization that really helped me get back on my feet after university and futile job searches.  (July 2022)

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. I felt so supported as I underwent a months-long journey of discovering God's calling for this season of my life, and when I eventually landed on a new placement, GoCorps gave me the tools I needed to adjust accordingly. Being a goer has enabled me to feel confident in my role in God's redemptive plan for His creation, regardless of where I am physically in the world. (Jul. 2022)

One of the major draws of GoCorps for me was that I could develop my professional skills while serving overseas. Two years felt like a huge time commitment at first, but it really does fly by, and you'll come out a different person -- in the best way! The experience will give you a new perspective on God, yourself, and the world. Going through the support-raising process challenged my faith and helped me to fully place my trust in God. On the field, I was humbled by the process of learning a new culture and language, and at the same time, amazed by the grace that people extended to me. I've also gained invaluable cross-cultural skills, which I know will serve me well as an educator in an urban area. (Apr. 2022)

Working outside of the U.S. for two years through my GoCorps experience has been a deeply enriching time. It has provided significant space for wholistic development. In many ways, it has helped set me on the path that I plan to go now and revealed many things about my interests and aptitudes that now inform my goals for the future. As I finished university, I knew I wanted to live overseas to continue exploring who I was and what I was interested in as I served alongside long-term workers in my city. Being in this space has provided a helpful context for challenge and clarity that I will surely carry with me into what is next. (Mar. 2022)

GoCorps has a wonderful vision to create a culture in the Christian Church of caring more about global missions and doing something about it. It provides very effective training for support raising and mentorship along the way. It offers many options of organizations to be sent through, though the focus is more so on the position and location than the organization. I grew a lot spiritually and personally through the roller-coaster that was my time with GoCorps throughout the pandemic and am very grateful that I had the job during that time and was able to serve on the field for a full year plus.
