ELCA World Impact extends curriculum beyond the classroom to provide our ELCA families with cultural, educational, and ministerial experiences both locally and around the world.
The purpose for World Impact mission trips is to build true disciples of Jesus Christ and to foster opportunities for these disciples to impact the world with the Gospel. Students are mobilized to go beyond the classroom and the community of McDonough. The endeavors purposefully partner with ministries established in other regions of the country and world.
The purpose for World Impact non-ministerial (academic/adventure) trips is to expose students to educational venues outside of a traditional classroom. Eagle’s Landing Christian Academy is built upon a framework of Kingdom Education and these trips aim to highlight unique parts of the world that God has created for His glory and our enjoyment.

DOCUMENTS
Registration begins on May 1 for World Impact trips.
Our registration process is tiered to allow older students an opportunity to travel first. However, their advantage is limited to one additional hour on May 1 (see below). For underclassmen, attempting to register before a designated time slot will result in being placed on a waitlist. For all students, a spot is not secured until the deposit is received on May 2. This money will be paid to Mrs. Capp in the High School Commons Area beginning at 7:00AM on May 2. After 3:00PM on May 2, any student who has not paid the deposit will be replaced by a student on the waitlist.
Mission trips require a "trip application". These applications are to be submitted to Mrs. Capp.
Registration will open at 5:00PM for rising seniors, 6:00PM for rising juniors, 7:00PM for rising sophomores, and 8:00PM for rising freshmen, Again, please do not register prior to your designated time.
Things to consider when registering:
-
Deposits are non-refundable. The deposit and trip authorization form is required at signup. Deposit should be made in cash/check (made payable to ELCA). Billing is NOT available for paying the deposit.
-
Departure dates are subject to change based on airfare and availability.
-
Separate deposits are required when registering for more than one trip (e.g. two checks are required if registering for two trips).
-
Trips will likely fill up. A waitlist will be used to fill in spots as able.
-
Students MUST be enrolled at ELCA for the year in which the trip will take place PRIOR to registering for a trip. A student is NOT allowed to be on a list until after they are enrolled or re-enrolled. Un-enrolled students who sign up will be removed from the trip list. No spot will be held while enrollment is being processed.
-
The Senior Trip to Disney does NOT require a deposit. The account will be billed in 6 installments from June to November.
-
Seniors are only allowed a second trip if their first trip is the Disney Senior Trip. Classes are cancelled for Seniors the week of the Disney Trip in the expectation that all Seniors are traveling to Disney.
-
Contact Mrs. Holly Capp directly for questions at holly.capp@eagleslanding.org
-
A background check is required for any adult traveling on an overnight trip.
-
All trips are subject to change. If a minimum number is not met, a trip could be canceled. The deposit would be returned on canceled trips and an attempt will be made to place the student on another trip.
-
Parents of High School students are allowed to travel on the Europe trip but no others due to space limitations. The cost for the parent is the same as the cost for a student.
-
Parents of Middle School students are allowed to travel on the Washington, DC or Charleston trips. The cost for the parent is the same as the cost for a student.
