Missions Schools or other options

[missAmy]

I am a senior in highschool this year and want to go into long term missions working with unreached people groups. Does anyone have any good advice on what exactly to do after highschool to pursue this?

There are a lot of different missions schools out there, and each has their strengths and their own weaknesses. Some are legalistic, others to rigid, shutting out the spirit from doing His work. In my limited scope of missions schools, my first recommendation (without knowing you at all) would be to check out New Tribes. www.ntm.org. They offer a Bible school as well as a misisons prep school, teaching basics of the bush. I'm not a graduate, just a raving fan of their ministry. I'd encourage you to prayerfully approach each opportunity that crosses you, and keep in good consultation with a solid Bible-teaching pastor. Blessing to you for even considering such a path!
