For those who are already experienced in running international student ministry in their church, there is much food for thought and pointers for going deeper. For those just starting out there are plenty of ideas and examples, with real student stories and discussion questions to enable deeper reflection.
“This handbook contains clear biblical principles, practical guidelines and helpful hints – answering most of the questions your church leaders are likely to have ever asked about international student ministry and many they have never thought about. The author’s continual focus on building friendships rather than just programmes, learning to ask questions, learning to listen, understanding that each individual has a unique background should be applied to all our relationships.”
Cassells Morrell, IFES Europe Associate Regional Secretary (2001-2018)

It is packed with encouraging stories and testimonies that will inspire and encourage, together with useful suggestions for further reading.”
John Stevens, National Director, FIEC
