A great missions trip starts with preparation—and that includes the gear. Whether you’re heading across the globe or across the state, a well-designed merch pack can build unity, spark conversation, and serve as a reminder of purpose long after the trip ends.

Here’s what to include:

1. Trip Shirt or Sweatshirt

Soft, durable, and designed around the message—not just the logo. Tie it to the theme of the trip or a verse that’s guiding the team. Keep the design clean enough to wear long after the trip is over.

2. Waterproof Sticker or Patch

Give your team something they can slap on a suitcase, water bottle, or notebook. A sticker with a mission phrase or location-based graphic makes it personal—and shareable. See: Faith-Based Stickers: Small Cost, Big Impact →

3. Journals or Devotional Add-Ons

Help your team reflect daily. Branded journals with space for Scripture, notes, and prayers can turn into keepsakes. Add a printed card or small insert with daily prompts or group goals.

Optional Extras (Budget-Willing)

• Custom drawstring bags for travel and day use
• Branded hats or sun protection gear (especially for outdoor trips)
• Simple encouragement cards for team leaders to distribute mid-trip

Missions merch should reflect more than your logo—it should reflect your purpose. See more ministry merch ideas →
