What the Mission Trip Will Be Like
Classes
In addition to morning classes, you’ll spend time with your national language helper learning the local trade language. Learn words and phrases through study and shared activities like working in the garden or learning a local craft.
See the Course Curriculum
Activities
“Village exposure” is available almost every day depending on local happenings. By interacting with the people, playing with the kids and practicing language skills, you’ll experience more of the culture hands-on.
Other group activities include sports, a day trip to town to barter for souvenirs, and traditional meals.
Evenings
The Interface staff open their homes to students every night. Spend time getting to know each other; exchange stories. They’ll listen as you process all you’re learning and answer your questions. Evening classes are often held, and weekly bonfires unite the group through worship and sharing.
Indigenous Side Trip
Experience missionary life in a remote area while interacting with the missionaries and indigenous people. Hear another language and taste another culture. Worship with indigenous believers. You’ll see a church plant in progress as a culmination of your Interface experience.
Field Support Internships in Papua New Guinea
An additional two to three week internship at Interface is available for those who qualify.

Motivation for Missions
(5 hrs.) What is God doing? How can you fit into His plans? Finding direction and His will for your life becomes clearer as you focus on His eternal purposes.
Evangelism & Discipleship
Do you know how to effectively communicate the Gospel with an animist? You’ll hear how missionaries present the Gospel in an indigenous church planting setting using a chronological approach.
Cross-Cultural Communication
(32 hrs.) Convinced you can’t learn a foreign language? You’ll surprise yourself. Classroom instruction followed by immediate application in the village provides an ideal learning environment. This includes direct language and culture gathering experience.
Mission Methods
(9 hrs.) Church planting cross-culturally is a huge job! Careful planning is required. You’ll be shown the methods missionaries use today to keep on track. Language-learning goals, surveys, strategy statements, church planting models, linguistics, literacy, Bible translation and more are covered.

Finances in Missions
(2 hrs.) Is it possible to stay out of debt and get an education? What does it cost to live as a missionary? This is your opportunity to receive biblically based, practical advice from experienced missionaries.
Communicating Missions
(6 hrs.) Missionaries are an extension of the local church. In order to build effective partnerships with churches and individuals you must first learn how to communicate well.
Critical Issues in Missions
(6 hrs.) Are the unreached really lost? What is the missionary call? What roles are there for women or singles in missions? These and other frequently asked questions are discussed.
Missionary Training
