Alongside Discovery 2004 in Europe

'Alongside Ministries International' is organising an intensive mission/study project named "Alongside Discovery 2004" in Europe. Through introducing practical Christian leadership to select college students and graduates, the young generations will be given an insight on contemporary issues of secular culture, biblical principles of ministry, the contrasting needs of the developed and developing world, and how to serve on a mission team in a local ministry context.

The programme will start from 27th June to 8th August. The team will spend three weeks intensive study, training and fellowship in Alsace, France. And then two weeks of hands-on service in small teams to other European countries including Albania, Estonia and France.

Alongside Ministries International has worked with churches and leaders who have sought help in several countries in Europe and North America for over twenty years. These include Albania, Austria, the Czech Republic, England, Estonia, France, Germany, Scotland and Canada and the U.S.

"Europe is an exciting opportunity where Christian workers are few. We hoped develop and lead ministries to evangelise, disciple and equip young people to serve Christ; as well as recruit, train, send and provide ongoing care for people called to serve as Alongsiders in cross-cultural ministry." -- Alongside Ministries International.
