The program is broken down into three buckets: Personal & spiritual growth, Biblical &
practical training, and local (DC area) & global missions work (oversees with partner country).
The time breakdown will look a little like this: 20 hours of field work, 15 hours of training, and 5
hours of on campus responsibilities. Almost every day you will be out doing local field work
reaching people through a variety of ways including but not limited to kid's programs, outreach
programs, college ministry, and door to door evangelism.

a Church. There you will be doing full-time missions, putting into practice all that you learned
throughout the teaching portion of the school.

Within the year of 2024 the program will be 100% free. In 2025 and onward, the program
will no longer be free. The cost will be determined based on what country we will be staying in
that semester and what means will need to be met regarding that trip.
Don’t let money be the reason that keeps you from participating in the school! We will walk
alongside you in helping you start your fundraising process. We have many resources and tools
that will help make fundraising easy for you!
