History
The inauguration ceremony of the School of Missions Mobilization was in March 2007, and the first generation of students graduated in March 2009. The invitation to work with the school is open, and applications are currently being accepted by the school’s leadership board. The website states that anyone who speaks Spanish, and who would like to be involved in an Evangelical Christian Church is encouraged to get involved with the school.
The Program and Curriculum
The school is an interdenominational project supported by both churches and individuals in Mexico. It offers a one or two-year residency program during which the students study missions subjects and theology. They live in dormitories on the school’s campus. After graduation, students go into the mission field for a minimum of two months to get field experience to pair with the training they have received from the school.
