The
Info:
East
Asia University Evangelism:
The
team will develop relationships as they take classes and
live on a university campus. The main focus will be building
relationships with local college students and looking for
opportunities to share through those relationships. The
people there will be eager to talk to you and practice their
English as much as possible. Many of the things you will
do there are similar to things you would do here. You will
go shopping, get tea and coffee, play basketball, volleyball,
badminton, and just hang out. This will be our 5 th summer
in this city. In the past, students have been eager to hear
and very open to the gospel. As
we pray and share our lives and the gospel with the students
we believe we will see Father change hearts and draw them
to himself.
Base
Camp: The first
three days of the trip are spent in training provided by
iWitness called Base Camp. This time is focused on team
building, spiritual preparation, training, etc. The Base
Camp location has not been finalized yet, but we will let
you know its location at a later date.
Commissioning:
We
encourage each church to commission their student. We will
also have a time of commissioning at the beginning of Base
Camp on May 17. This will coincide with a brief Parent's
meeting and reception as students are dropped off for their
trip.
Cost:
Until we get
our airfare secured, we are not able to give a final price
for the trip. We are estimating this trip to cost in the
neighborhood of $3,600 per person. The trip cost includes
airfare, in-country transportation, housing, food, Base
Camp, insurance, supplies, administrative fees, etc. The
only thing not covered in the trip cost will be the student's
transportation to Base Camp, transportation home from the
airport, and souvenirs.
Fundraising:
This is part
of the process of doing missions. This is a part of your
going because it challenges your faith as you see God provide.
You will learn to trust God, which will better equip you
for your trip. We provide a fundraising packet of information,
suggestions, and ideas to all participants. There is a special
emphasis given to getting your church involved, and we provide
suggestions on that as well. You can download it here.
Communication:
Our website
is designed to be the main source of information related
to our ministry. Students, please check your email regularly.
We will continue to communicate all necessary information
as the trip preparation progresses.
