Missions Opportunities

ETERNITY WEEK

Eternity Week is the pinnacle point of the year where every student applies their ministry skills to a week of intense evangelism. Students travel to heavily-populated areas for Eternity Week each year and are exposed to various different subcultures within the Philippines for one week’s time. Ministry skills are applied to churches, schools, and communities alike while facing daily opportunities to share their testimonies and see many come to Christ.

Ministry approaches used throughout Eternity week include: basketball tournaments, puppet demonstrations, school ministries and chapels, dramas, counseling, house-to-house, room-to-room and more. On Sunday(s) the group splits into teams and disperses to many local churches for children’s ministry, testimonies, worship, and preaching the Word of God.
