A year doesn't seem like much time unless you
invest it for eternity
12 months of volunteer
service on a mission field
Do you
tithe your time?
Would you give a tithe of your first 10 years out of
college to help fulfill Christ's Great Commission as a volunteer on a mission
field?
SNU challenges its graduates to give at least a year of volunteer
service in cross-cultural ministry. Most of those who have responded have spent
that year (or more) working under the Mission Corps (formerly NIVS ) program of
the Church of the Nazarene.
Others have given it through organizations
like Youth with a Mission and Operation Mobilization.
Dee Kelley and
Howard Culbertson work with placing students in opportunities best suited to
their interests and individual talents.

Tentmaking? That means you go overseas and take a
job. You witness in appropriate ways on the job and then give great chunks
of your free time to church planting and development. In the Church of the
Nazarene, "tentmaking" missionaries sign a covenant agreement which
gives them some structure and accountability.
"It seems like so many students have volunteer missions on their
heart, but at some point they lose interest. I am not sure if it is the
money or just lack of direction." -- Brandon McDonald
