Q:  What is covered in the cost?
A:  The cost covers everything a student needs to learn and serve
during the nine months of Operation MissionLIFE.  Tuition, housing,
food, international ticket fare, and all classroom and ministry materials
are included in the cost.  In addition to this, LIFE gives a monthly
stipend of US$100 during phase one, and US$250 during phase two
to cover local travel, food and various other needed expenses.

Q:  Why does Operation MissionLIFE have two phases?

A:  LIFE desires to equip it’s students with the all the skills necessary
for soul-winning both in a Western (secular) and cross-cultural
context.  Even in North America the need is great for experienced
Bible workers who know how to share the gospel across cultural
bounds.  It is our conviction that students who know how to disciple
others both at home and abroad are the most well equipped for God
to use wherever He needs them.

Q:  Do I have to go overseas once phase one is completed?
A:  Although Operation MissionLIFE is designed as a complete nine
month training and service program, students can opt out of phase two if they so choose.  Many Seventh-day Adventist churches and institutions in North America have a need for experienced Bible workers and are interested in employing LIFE students who have successfully completed phase one.

Q:  What exactly will I be doing in Thailand during phase two?

A:  During phase two students are involved in various outreach activities including health ministry, public evangelism, and discipling others in a small group setting.  During this time LIFE students join together with local Bible workers for the purpose of establishing new work in unentered areas.  The primary focus of the student missionary is to help begin new work and generate Bible study interests for the local Bible workers to follow up.
