Parent Information

Bethel students talking with girls in the community they are serving

Parents and guardians play an important role in the overall lives of our students. As students consider their participation in God’s global work through a short-term mission trip, that important role is accentuated. These pages are intended to give you some background on the purpose and intentions of our missions program, to answer some of your questions regarding mission trips at Bethel, and to equip you to support your student in this entire process.

Resources for parents:

+ History and Purpose of SMP
+ Parent FAQ
+ Student Safety on SMP Trips
+ How to Support Your Student
+ Bethel University Waiver and Release of Claims
