What
is an AIM Training Conference?
These conferences, sponsored by the national
AIM office and Assemblies of God World Missions, provide training
for youth pastors, senior pastors, District Youth Directors,
and lay leaders who will lead AIM trips in the coming year.
What
can you expect from an AIM Training Conference?
The sessions focus on the relationships of
the missionaries and the mission teams. Hear from key speakers
like Tom Greene (National Youth Director), Mark McGrath (NYM
Global Ministries), and Randy Hurst (Assemblies of God World
Missions). Topics include what the missionary needs from a mission
team, what to realistically expect from a mission trip, right
and wrong reasons to have a mission trip, crisis situations and
advance planning, and legal issues. The training closes with
a powerful commissioning service at which the directors and msisionaries
pray for each participant, commissioning them to lead their AIM
teams.
What
are the benefits of AIM Training?
Aside from the fellowship and encouragement that takes place, it is inspiring
to hear the testimonies of those who have seen so many lives changed on missions
trips.Completion of these workshops also earns you a certification card that
is valid for two years and qualifies you to lead a national AIM trip. Once
a your certification has expired, you will need to attend another conference.
