LEARN MORE

Immersion. Incarnation. Innovation.

Avance is a Christian cultural immersion program for the next generation, ages 18-29. We are passionate about the formation of reflective, servant leaders immersed in culture and language who serve under local leadership in ministry.

Avance’s 4 Pillars:

1. SPIRITUAL FORMATION
Participants will develop intimacy with God through cultivating their walk with Jesus as evidenced in Christ-likeness and personal spiritual disciplines.

2. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
In Avance, the participant will learn how to identify and cultivate their specific gifts and how to apply these to the kingdom of God, as they grow in maturity and learn skills that prepare them for their future.

3. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Avance participants will engage with leadership themes, grow in their leadership abilities, and take initiative to create positive change in their spheres of influence.

4. CROSS CULTURAL MINISTRY SKILLS
Participants will develop a respect and understanding for the host culture, language, and context through formal training and everyday immersion. In result, they will spread the Kingdom of God in culturally appropriate ways as they emulate Christ’s incarnational ministry.
