Waypoints: Formation for your Missionary Journey
Every Step Matters.
Waypoints is a formation-focused series designed to guide aspiring missionaries from calling to
readiness. It cultivates the resilience, character, and gospel endurance needed for a life of faithful
international service. Through intentional discussions and hands-on labs, you'll grow in spiritual
disciplines and develop the practical skills essential for arriving, surviving, and thriving on the field.
Whether you're just sensing the call or preparing for deployment, this pathway will shape you for long-term, Christ-centered impact.
The journey to faithfulness begins now!
Why Waypoints?
Is God calling you to the task of making disciples among the nations?
Is your Church considering sending you as a missionary?
Are you appointable?
On the journey to faithful missions, every step matters.
