Psalm 95 :2 “Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.”
EI encouraged young people with a heart to serve to join the organization. A young person who would commit to a service period of 15 months began with a 3-month training course at the Stouffville, ON, Canada site. For many years, training school was a huge part of the mission’s focus as young people received cross-cultural training and gained an understanding about working under the authority of a local church.
Trainees were placed in teams of usually around 5 people. On their field assignment, they were partnered with the same number of nationals, each person having their own partner. The goal was to assist the local church to be able to meet the physical and spiritual needs within their communities with practical skills that improved daily living.
