ABWE loves its missionary kids (MKs). Each summer we invite some of our college-age MKs to join us and live, connect, and serve side-by-side in the ministries of ABWE’s International Headquarters (IHQ) with staff and missionaries. Our staff serve as gracious hosts during their time at IHQ. Participants will engage with a wide array of mission leaders and enjoy unique experiences and work opportunities that will enrich their future. The program offers our children of our missionaries the chance to:
- Make an impact on missionary families by serving important needs at the IHQ
- Gain spiritual mentoring and teaching from mature believers focused on investing in you
- Build community through teamwork and fellowship with other MKs
- Influence and invest in the lives of younger MKs
- Save money for college
- Learn and grow through Bible study and prayer times
- Participate in team building and orientation
- Live in the homes of different IHQ teammates and the ABWE guest house
- Prepare for and assist with summer MK programs (children & teens)
- Serve in the IHQ kitchen and grounds
- Support special projects, event preparation, and the ME Conference
