The
Gateway missionary training program is designed
to produce growth in every area in the life
of the missionary candidate . This is done
through the use of a variety of training
methods to broaden the learning experience
and intentionally address key concerns and
struggles which a missionary will face on
the missions field.
Gateway is committed to addressing the crucial
training needs of missionaries in the 21st
century. As a training community, the missionary
candidate's life at Gateway is enriched
cross-culturally as they learn and interact
with fellow missionary candidates from various
cultural backgrounds. They not only share
the classroom but together with the teachers
and staff, eat, work, minister, worship
and live together.
The
