What:
The Intensive Training summer project is designed for you to spend 7 weeks focusing on expanding your heart for the entire world as you walk through challenging missions material that is guaranteed to rock your perspective.
You will spend your days learning about missions, mobilization and methodology. Evenings will be a time of practical hands-on application and study time. Project weekends will be spent getting up close and personal with some of the world's major religions.
You will meet other students from all over the country who share in your vision and passion for the world. Be prepared to rub shoulders with the nation's leading missiologists as well.
Now is your chance to engage in a summer of fast-paced, in-your-face MISSIONS…it could be the summer that changes your life!
Why:
Many college students are not sure where they fit when it comes to missions. The IT Summer Project is invaluable because of the broad range of exposure it offers. IT will give you a glimpse of all the major world religions as you hear from those who have many years of experience ministering to them and as you tour the temples for yourself.
The purpose for this type of training is to allow the Lord to prompt and guide you into His plan for you through these experiences so that you have a more clear direction of where you are best suited in the Great Commission and to equip you to bring the vision and the ability to train others back to your campus.
After returning from IT you will not only be able to cast vision for the Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Chinese and Tribal world, but you will be able to effectively minister to anyone from one of these major religions.
You will be able to walk other students through how to gain a heart for the world and hand them the tools they need to understand their part in the Great Commission. Also you will be able to meet and network with those who are on the front lines of mission work all over the world.
