ARROW

ARROW (Advancing to Reach the Rest Of the World) is monthly online gathering for missionary candidates to expand their knowledge, work through their concerns, and deepen their relationship with God prior to going on the mission field.

Each month ARROW members will gather online with former missionaries to discuss topics having to do with cultural, theological, team, missional, and prayer dimensions. Some such topics include The Importance of Language Learning, The Theology of Risk (and Fear), Team Conflict, Burnout vs. Thriving, and Spiritual Warfare. Members will also have the opportunity to meet others who will likely be serving abroad at the same time they are, read books together, and grow an important relationship with RP Global Missions staff.
