Whole-life learning in community
This is much more than classroom instruction. Profound learning can result when practical cross-cultural service is joined with biblical formation, professional preparation and life in community. Participants learn about a culture, their distinctive contribution and their life’s work by living among people, listening well and serving alongside trusted local leaders.
A partnership for lifelong learning
Hosts and their organizations provide meaningful field projects and local guidance. Mentors and churches support spiritual formation and reflection. Donors invest in people and projects they care about. Together, these relationships create a context for lifelong learning and practical witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
