BCOM's global internship is a 16-month missionary training program that allows students to experience foreign missions firsthand. Our sister organization, Bethany International Ministries, is our sending agency.
In September 2011, I will travel to Kenya with seven classmates for missionary training. This program, called Global Internship, serves as the practical element of the BCOM Bachelor's degree in Cross-cultural Studies. As students we will invest in language learning and adapting to the culture for the first four months. Throughout internship, we will work alongside long-term missionaries and short-term teams in local ministries such as schools, churches, and orphanages. Hobby and vocational ministries provide necessary relationship-building opportunities.
Please pray about how you can help us fulfill the Great Commission by donating to Bethany International (see right). Each student is responsible for raising about $25,000 for this 16-month endeavor ($9,055 initial + $1,070/month). This covers plane tickets, visas, set-up, rent, food, ministry materials, administration fees, travel expenses, etc.
Donations can be one-time gifts or a monthly commitment. Cash, check, and credit card are all accepted forms of payment. Interns must have 100% of their budget raised or pledged by July 31st. Once we have reached 100% support, we will be able to purchase plane tickets.
Prayer is crucial. Remember the Bethany interns as we embark on this life-changing adventure. We look forward to sharing this experience with you and sincerely thank you for your support.
Mungu aku bariki,
(God bless you)
