Missionary Support Raising
As a Summer Missionary, you may volunteer your time or receive payment for each club that you teach. All Missionary Assistants are considered volunteers. The training costs, materials, and payroll is provided through the missionary support that we help you raise. Most of your friends, people at your church, and relatives will be glad to help your participation in this mission's project. We will help you construct and send support letters, a mid-summer update, and thank-you letters.

IMPORTANT:
Training is an important requirement to prepare you for a successful ministry. You MUST be available to attend Christian Youth In Action® training at Indiana Wesleyan University, in Marion, IN for one week in June. The cost of the training is $500 + $100 for 5-Day Club® T-shirts. We will help you to raise this cost through our Summer Missionary Support Program. There will also be several pre-trainings in our local area (free of charge) which we will schedule with you to be completed before you leave for CYIA™ training. If you are not available for these dates, then you will be unable to join us as a summer missionary for the 2018 summer ministries. Cost and dates are subject to change from year to year.
