Preparing to Go to the Muslim World
Frontiers wants to see you get to the field as quickly as possible, and there are many ways to get there. Through our experience, we have designed a process to easily coach you and help prepare you for your journey overseas.
We have local representatives in your area who can help answer your initial questions and guide you through the early stages of The Journey Once you officially apply with Frontiers, you will be coached by an Overseas Placement Coordinator who can help you and your senders assess the right timing and location for your service to Muslims based on your gifting, your vision and your readiness to go.
Whether you already have a clear vision of where God is calling you or whether you are exploring the greatest needs for pioneer work, we want to help you get there and thrive in the Muslim world for the sake of the Kingdom.
