Global migration means there are people from all over the world right on our doorsteps.
This movement of people presents a fantastic opportunity to share the gospel. We believe that to make the most of this we need to understand our neighbours’ cultures. This allows us to build bridges to deepen friendships and communicate the gospel more effectively.
We’ve developed this three-part course to enable you to do just that. The course can be run as a one-day seminar or as a series of modules across a number of weeks.
If you’re interested in running this training, contact your local Area Representative.
