By admin on Sep 21, 2007 in Featured, What's the Big Year Out?
Are you feeling the need for ‘time out’?
A change of direction…
Space to breathe…
Have you been challenged to get serious about your faith? To make a difference… Be an agent of change…
The Big Year Out is a new adventure in living and serving for Christian young adults aged 18 to 30 years. It’s a year-long experience that you can take on part-time or full time. The Big Year Out includes
- a one-week discipleship intensive (9-13 February 09)
- a weekly community day of sharing, learning, inspiration and spiritual growth
- a weekly, hands-on mission placement in a church community service agency
- a mid year cross-cultural trip for three weeks including briefing and de-briefing
- a spiritual growth plan that takes you deeper in prayer and reading the Bible
- an end of year discernment retreat
- and more …
The Big Year Out is a part-time program. Along with the Discipleship Intensive and cross-cultural trip, each week from March you participate in the Community day and one day of mission service. That leaves the rest of your week free for part-time work, study, whatever.
You can also make The Big Year Out a full-time year by
- adding some study in Certificate/Diploma or Degree programs through the Adelaide College of Divinity
- offering more than one day a week for your mission service placement
- combining the BYO with service or work in your church or a Christian organisation
