YOU CAN MOVE YOUR MINISTRY OVERSEAS. HERE'S HOW.
ready to feel prepared for cross cultural missions?
You love missions. And you realize you’re called to do ministry in another nation.
That’s awesome.
But first you’ve got things to take care of. Things like:
- Legal documents
- Financial support
- Health insurance
- Travel plans
- Where you’ll live overseas
- Building a team
- Language learning
That’s a lot.
If you’re like a lot of new missionaries you’re not prepared for all this. And frankly it’s overwhelming.
The good news is many missionaries have gone before you and they’ve seen tremendous success.
They got prepared and they took the next step and they’re leading fruitful overseas ministries.
With the right training and access to the right resources you can feel prepared and create a thriving overseas ministry.
School of Cross Cultural Missions uses training and a wealth of experience to empower you to create - or join - a ministry overseas.
At the end of your training, you’ll take the next step by going on a 3 month Scouting Trip*. You’ll explore your desired nation, network with ministries on the ground, and prepare to make your long-term move.
*Scouting Trip locations must be approved. Current events and immigration complications are outside of YWAM Orlando's control. We cannot guarantee every desired Scouting Trip location.
