International InitiativesSM, a Ministry of WMU®

China

    English is a great need in China. Children, students, and adults seek opportunities to learn and improve their English-speaking skills. However, not everyone has easy access to these opportunities. For example, those who are underprivileged may not have the chance to learn English.

    Adult Teams are needed during the school year to work in migrant schools, which are primary schools in Nanjing for children of workers from rural areas who come to the city to look for jobs. The work would consist of giving underprivileged elementary school children opportunities to sing, play games, and to participate in English activities.

    *Dates: October 17–29, 2008

    *This team will spend five days in the classroom. Some afternoons and evenings will include dialogue with Chinese college students. The team will also spend one evening of conversational English with students in the national seminary. The team will tour Amity Printing Company, where 40 million (and counting at 3 or 4 million a year) Bibles have been printed for China. They will visit with the Amity staff at their Nanjing headquarters. Additional travel includes visiting the Forbidden City and the Great Wall of China.

    *Cost: Approximately $2,500

    WMU® also offers additional opportunities to serve in China.
