Have
you ever heard someone talk about traveling or studying abroad and thought,
“I’d love to do that someday.” Well, now you can, and it’s easier than ever.
Study Abroad programs aren’t a new invention, but Northland’s “GO Study Abroad”
(GSA) program has a new twist on traditional study abroad programs—live and
work with a full-time missionary while taking classes. And, you can get all of
this for about the same cost as a normal semester.
Think
about living for three months with a tribe in central Africa, in a metropolitan
hub in Asia, in a historic city in Europe, or . . . just about anywhere. You’ll
get a glimpse of what God is doing in that city, region, and country. While
you’re there, you can continue to take your Bible classes and other courses
toward your program of study so that you can still graduate on time. In
addition, you’ll be living with a missionary family who will take you under
their wing, showing you the ropes of ministry in this new setting.
You
can get there easier than you think, and it will change your life. To see what
opportunities are available and receive answers to your questions, please

for Global Opportunities by e-mail
or call 715.324.6900 ext. 2300.

following is an update from one of our GSA students this semester, Katie Green,
serving with a Bible translation agency in South Asia.
