In this multiple-choice world, sometimes all we want is a taste. A sampling, a mini yogurt cup to experience all the flavors that the world has to offer before committing to just one.
Missions is no different. Sometimes God’s call to the field is less clear, we have to try something out. Even when His call is clear, it can change when we experience it. In those moments he speaks. This is what short-term missions is all about. One Challenge is excited about our new short-term mission experience – the one-year internship program.
Learning about oneself and having impact takes time. One Challenge wants to give young people the opportunity to experience life on an OC team while being mentored by a seasoned worker.
Counting the opportunities
This opportunity can happen on three OC teams: Romania, Central Asia and East Asia. Each team has workers eager to pour into the lives of young people and help develop them into the people the Lord wants them to be. Each country offers unique opportunity to experience missions, get involved, and discover the Lord’s direction, whether that be in missions or not.
Thinking through the details
Here’s what the one year short-term missions program offers:
- • One-on-one mentoring
• Small group discipleship training
• Cross-cultural exposure (language, culture, history, etc.)
• Wide variety of hands-on experience
• Serving alongside local and other workers
• Opportunities to join a long-term One Challenge team
