Journey Overview
REACH is a 5-month training program where you will be exposed to different kinds of cultures, ministries, and missions' opportunities. A Biblical foundation for discipleship provides a structure for spiritual growth, healing, and a platform for sharing your faith. You will participate in a weekly ministry and explore where your passion and skillset can be most fruitful in God's Kingdom while a personal coach-mentor will walk through this journey with you. You will look at the “why” and “how” of missions while learning about and interacting with other world religions. Students will have a chance to make a difference in the surrounding society through participating in local evangelistic ministries and two outreaches. There are so many people all over the world that don't know Jesus. Do you want to do something about that? We are on a mission to put a vibrant community of Jesus followers in everyone's reach, especially where there is not already a local church present. Come join REACH in Chile to be prepared and equipped together with other like-minded people from all over the globe to do just that. You will be trained in practical skills, challenged to grow as a disciple of Jesus, and guided to find your strategic place in world missions!
