Bootcamp: Your Mission Adventure Starts Here!
Welcome to Bootcamp—a high-energy, missions-focused training program by Grace Ambassadors, part of GraceLife. We’re all about equipping believers to be bold, effective witnesses of Jesus and reach people who may have never even heard of Him.
Bootcamp gives you the essentials of world missions and discipleship. It’s designed to help you understand your purpose, clarify your calling, and get practical tools for living a life that matters. If you’re ready to explore how God can use you in amazing ways, then this is for you!
Is Bootcamp for You?
If you’re considering going full-time in ministry—whether as a pastor, a missionary, or taking your profession to another country as an “undercover” missionary—Bootcamp was made for you! But even if you just want to dive deeper into your faith and make a difference, Bootcamp is an experience that will challenge and inspire you.
What You’ll Experience
Bootcamp is an intense, hands-on program that combines classroom learning with personal discipleship and real-world experience. It’s all about strengthening your faith, finding your purpose, and discovering the joy of living on mission with Jesus. You’ll have opportunities to put your faith into action, get out of your comfort zone, and grow through serving, evangelism, and discipleship.
Schedule:
Bootcamp runs for about 12 weeks on Mondays & Thursdays: 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm, and Saturdays: 8:00 am – 1:00 pm.
Classes are live on Zoom, with Saturday sessions available online or in person. We expect students to attend their church weekly, and serve if possible. There’s also a required mission trip (options for 10 days, 1 month, or 3 months) to graduate—because we believe missions are best learned by doing!
No Need to Stress About Finances
In line with our ministry values, we typically don’t charge for training. However, Bootcamp includes a small fee to cover program costs and encourage students to trust God in finances. Upon receiving your application, we’ll provide access to an online course on raising financial support. This will help you build partnerships if needed. Don’t let money hold you back; take a step of faith! If financial concerns arise, please contact us so we can discuss solutions together.
Program Costs (Mission Trip Not Included)
- GraceLife Members: R4000 per person, R6000 per married couple
- Non-Members: R5500 per person, R7500 per married couple
The mission costs will be finalized soon and communicated as soon as possible. We will help you to raise the fund needed.
Kickoff and Practical Days
We’ll start with orientation on the first Saturday and we will plan in other practical days as we go. For practical days, we’ll make plans to make attendance as easy as possible based on where everyone is located.
Online Class Requirements
For online classes, you’ll need a device with a good internet connection and a willingness to stay engaged (cameras on, please!). We’re keeping it interactive, so be ready to dive in—no distractions, no halfway participation. We’re all in, and we expect the same from you!
