IWU's ministry teams may be scheduled at various times throughout the year:
Weekend Tours - After selection in September, music ministry teams travel from late October through April. Weekend tours generally stay within a radius of six hours from the Indiana Wesleyan University campus.
Spring Break Tour - The University Chorale and IWU Wind Ensemble travel on alternate years during spring break week. Groups are able to travel anywhere within the contiguous United States. Each group seeks to minister in churches, Christian schools and other venues within the tour area.
May Tour - Following the April graduation each year, one or more teams concentrate on ministry in Christian schools. Music teams lead chapel concerts as well as visit churches to tell the story of Indiana Wesleyan University through music and testimonies.
Summer Tours - Summer Ministry Teams are available to serve at camps and churches across America each summer. Worship bands and ministry teams (which include games for recreation) are offered to enhance camp prgramming and provide positive role models for campers.
