• Summer 2008, the ORU Worship Department sent out four music mission teams worldwide and all throughout the U.S. to minister through music and to share the love of Christ with people of various cultures and backgrounds. Our teams, comprised of all ORU students, traveled to Slovenia, Romania, Paraguay, the Philippines, New Zealand, Germany, the Czech Republic, and to many states within the U.S. These students went into every man's world as ORU is training and equipping them to do.
  • Hear what some of our worship tour team members have to say about their experiences this summer:

    "Being a part of Worship Tours was unlike any other opportunity I have ever experienced! Pulling together outreach and worship is truly the purpose of ORU Worship. Nothing is better than putting our goals into action." -Suzi Land, vocalist and pianist for Team Germany/Czech Republic

    "Being given the opportunity to lead a team of friends across the world, to Romania and Slovenia, opened my naive eyes to a people in desperate need of the Father's love."- Tripp Hipple, team leader and drummer for Team Slovenia/Romania

    "Worship Tours was about being kingdom-minded and about encouraging those miles away that we serve the same God. Humility in service was the focus. We are simply vessels that God graciously chooses to use regardless of status and talents. It was about catching the heart of God." -Charity Flores, vocalist for Team Slovenia
