WHERE STUDENTS WILL STAY

Gap Year students will live on the campus of The Mission Center, Touch the World’s training center, nestled in the Pocono Mountains. Students will live in split-gender apartments within the home of Randy and Deb Sheagley, TTW staff and Missions & Discipleship Year mentors. This family-style setting is designed for intentional discipleship as students discover who they are, who God is, and what His calling for their life is.

Both semesters of the program will involve mentoring, spiritual formation, and experiential learning, culminating in a global missions opportunity.
