Do you have what it takes to become a missionary?

Why are you considering missions?
Rural missions is more than a job; it's a ministry which can be very demanding. Loneliness, cultural differences, financial limitations, and other frustrations may come your way. You need to have a strong conviction that God is leading you into missions. Your love for God and your desire to glorify Him, no matter what, must be top priority.

What have you been doing?
Crossing the ocean will not make you a missionary. Whatever you propose to do in ministry across cultural lines you should already be doing now. Are you committed and involved in your local church? It is the church that does the sending. They need to be involved in discipling, training, and equipping you.

What's your lifestyle?
Does the way you live demonstrate an attitude of self-discipline, teachability, servant spirit, flexibility, accountability, initiative, perseverance, sense of humor, a team player?

What do you have to offer?
There are academic or other qualifications (vocational) that will be required, depending on the type of ministry and length of term: theology, missions, anthropology, agriculture, mechanic, linguistics. Some countries require a degree for entry. What specific skills do you have to offer for cross-cultural ministry?

Are you fit?
The pressures of cross-cultural ministry require that you be in good physical, emotional, and psychological health. Stamina and good health are important assets.

Do you fit?
Going out with God's Remnant Assembly Mission Squad means joining a team. You need to be compatible with the team's beliefs, goals, and methods. Study the agency's doctrinal statement, core values and purpose statement. Can you work with an international and nondenominational team such as GRA?
