ADVANCE TEAM: ATLANTA
7-Day Cross-Cultural Ministry Experience
About Atlanta Advance TeamSOur Atlanta Advance Team experience is a unique opportunity for students to do cross-cultural gospel work stateside by joining what God is already doing in and through our Resident Ministry Team based in the incredible community of Clarkston, a suburb of Atlanta.
Our Resident Ministry TeamOur Resident Ministry Team is the heartbeat of our ministry mission in the Nashville area. Team members live, work, and serve among displaced peoples as missionaries. Most are tasked with reaching an apartment complex in which they have been embedded. Team Members play a crucial role in helping to coach and train high school and college students for cross-cultural gospel ministry.
Our Resident Ministry Team accomplishes its goals and objectives by 1) training and coaching students to live and serve as cross-cultural gospel workers. This is done by 2) immersing students in an active, cross-cultural ministry environment that is focused on evangelism, discipleship, and church-planting. This is possible because our Resident Ministry Team is already 3) living missionally and working as a team alongside our local partners to achieve gospel saturation in our target ministry area. |
why Clarkston?Clarkston is known as "Ellis Island of the South." Since the 1970s, refugees fleeing oppression and war have been resettled in Clarkston which has earned it the unique distinction of being hailed as “the most diverse square mile in America”. Over time, the 60,000 refugees who arrived in Clarkston from around the world have transformed the once majority-White community into an enclave of radical diversity. More than half of Clarkston’s population of about 13,000 people is foreign-born

the opportunity for your studentsThere are unlimited opportunities here in Nashville for outreach, learning, and genuine cross-cultural gospel engagement. This is why we are so passionate about exposing students to and involving them directly in this dynamic ministry environment!
Our vision for Advance Teams in Nashville is to connect students locally to missions that is global. We commit ourselves to focusing on your students and helping them to get them most out of this experience. We will make every effort and take every opportunity to bridge the gaps between people in our community. Together, alongside our Resident Ministry Team and our ministry partners, we will engage people from many cultures, religions, and backgrounds. In doing so, we will teach your students to learn to respect and appreciate cultural differences and help them to see the world through a different vantage point than what they have been accustomed to. Above all, we want your students to love people more deeply, understand cross-cultural ministry more directly, and articulate the Gospel more clearly as a result of the time they spend doing ministry here alongside our team in Nashville. |
