Within the US, you will be serving in various ministries that may include inner-city, orphanages and children’s homes, work among Native Americans, and working at ICOM (The International Conference on Missions). However, all ministries besides ICOM may change year to year depending on their needs as well as the ways in which their needs blend with our own targeted focus. Our staff prays each year about which ministries to partner with and learn from. Every year is unique to that group of students.

How do I support Raise?
We have a support raising coach who meets with every student to guide them through the support raising process. Below are additional resources that our process is based on. One of our most consistent prayers is that God would not only bring us students, but that He would bring us the right students. We understand support raising can seem daunting, but if you feel called to Entermission, please know that we're in your corner!
