Seeds World Action Teams.

What do teams do?

Seeds Teams spend most of their time sharing the gospel with children in public and private schools throughout their target nation by mounting high-impact assembly programs in front of the entire school.  Puppets, music, dance, games and testimonies are all combined so that the children can learn about Christ’s love and how they can know more.

Key facts about the assembly program:

  • 5-6 people make up an assembly performance group

  • Although Seedlings is targeted at the 9 year old child, the assembly programs are for the entire school. Some are as big as 800 students!

  • The assembly program is pre-written and developed by our Seeds Teams, and then sent to you with scripts and a training DVD in lots of time to rehearse with your team.

  • Each Performance Group visits 2-3 schools a day.

  • If you do not have enough people from your church then it may be possible to join up with another group.

  • Teams can travel anytime from Oct-Nov & Jan-May.

  • Most trips are 7 days in length, but can be longer if desired.

Cost of taking a team:

  • Seeds International charges $125.00 a day per person to cover in country expenses related to ground transport, meals and accommodation. The rest goes towards distribution of Seedlings materials, training of teachers and local administrative costs.

  • Each team must organize and pay for their own flights to their target country.

  • Most trips are under $2000.00/person all in.

“We ask local churches to partner with us by getting involved with a short term SEEDS team. You go into the country, you go to the schools, and you put on a little show. The show is what we call an assembly program. It involves puppets, games, object lessons and it’s just so much fun! I’ve been on many of those trips and the kids just gather around like the team is a bunch of rockstars showing up at the school because the SEEDS program has a reputation in the community.”
