I’m ready! What steps do I take on the path to service?

So now you’ve done it. You’ve come down with a case of apparently genuine, inescapable calling to the mission field. Now what?

Inquire

Introduce yourself to our personnel department by submitting a service inquiry. We want to walk alongside you as you discern this call. After you have made inquiry, our personnel department will contact you.

Confirm Your Calling

We don’t want to alarm you: sometimes, it is true, these callings come directly from God. Yet sometimes they come from indigestion. You will want to test your sense of calling to know its origins.

1. Visit with your pastor.
2. Share your sense of calling with a prayer partner.
3. Pray that God would relieve you of the burden, if it is not his clear design for you.

Illuminate Your Calling

If your calling is genuine, it will need a little illumination. What does God seem to have for you, specifically?

1. Read a missionary biography.
2. Participate in a missionary prayer meeting.

Apply for Candidacy

Before applying for full missionary service, you will want to apply as a missionary candidate. Our personnel department will direct you through this process.
