What way?God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us.
1 Cor.12:6 New Living Translation Many ways to serveYou can be sent out on a short or long term basis. Maybe you want to preach the Gospel, train disciples. You may prefer development work. And don't forget, offices need staff. There are many opportunities (link to Opportunities, or embed in this page in a table) and no doubt there is one that fits you! OrientationAs an orientation you could visit a mission post and offer your practical help for a couple of weeks. Or join a group of youngsters and serve an (overseas) mission project. A number of mission organisations organize such trips: Livingstone, Youth with a Mission, East Europe Mission, Athletes in Action, Children's Relief and more.
TrainingThe job you prefer and the place where you'll work will have a major influence on your preparations. Some jobs demand a higher education. People and their culture can be so different from your own that you have to learn about them before you leave.
