For married couples or families with children, pre-field training will not only give you the tools you need as an individual but will equip your family with common words and language to talk about the often hard-to-articulate struggles of culture shock and life overseas. This is not just an investment in your ministry, it is an investment in the health and success of your family on the field.

We understand that every dollar you have raised toward your ministry is important, and that you want to be a good steward of the funds that both God and others have entrusted to you. We believe that investing your money into proper pre-field equipping will make your donor's investment go further, by increasing your capacity and effectiveness in ministry and giving you the tools you need to personally thrive overseas. It can be especially expensive if you have a family, but your kids will highly benefit from the curriculum as they face their own challenges overseas. |

We know you are excited to get to the field. We are excited for you too! Even if pre-field training means that you have to delay launching by a month or two, we believe it is the best use of your time. We have yet to hear from a long-term missionary that who regrets not getting to the field a little bit earlier. On the other hand, we have talked to multiple missionaries who regret not launching in the right way. |
