Participants have three track options to choose from, depending on their current circumstances and future ministry goals.
Option 1 One Year Only
This option is particularly suited to believers who seek to be equipped to evangelise and disciple new believers as a part of the work of their local church. Year 1 requires no pre-bible training and equips believers to return to their churches and local areas with the skills required to evangelise, disciple and grow church communities in a relevant and effective manner.
Option 2 Two Years with a Gap
The option is helpful for those who need more time to consider, in partnership with their church, if cross-cultural missionary work is for them and their family. For some it may mean further training, completion of other courses, or opportunity to allow the church to observe growth and commitment to serving.
Option 3 Two Years Cross- Cultural Missions
This third track is suited to mature believers who may have previously completed some bible training and already have their churchs support in becoming involved in the career of cross-culture missionary work with NTM or another missional ministry. Year 2 requires successful completion of Year 1 in order to qualify for entry and offers more specialized training for those who intend to work in cross-cultural setting either within Australia or another country.
