We are very excited that our application for the 2015 Global Mission Fellow program is ready!   Whether you are able to apply this year, interested in helping promote Global Mission Fellows, or are interested in applying in the future, we thank you for your ongoing support of this program.  We are here and able to answer any questions that you might have J  We are also happy to hear that you heard about us through your local pastor!
Through the Global Mission Fellows program, you can serve internationally (International Track) or in the United States (US-2 Track) for a duration of 2 years.  I am an alumni of the US-2 program, served in the in Miami, FL for 2 years working with Haitian people, and I absolutely loved my experience.  The type of work that you would be doing varies.  Depending on what strengths and talents you have, and depending on what type of work is available, our office will help to pick the best placement for you.
