SEND University

SEND U is SEND International's training and development focus. It equips and develops SEND missionaries and leaders in order to accomplish the overall mission of SEND International, that is to mobilize God’s people and engage the unreached in order to establish reproducing churches. Our goal is to see our people thrive, to become healthy Jesus-followers who make disciples of those who are least reached.

SEND U stands for SEND University. But we are not a university with a campus, a huge library and a number of tenured professors. Our leadership staff is a virtual team, scattered throughout the world. The training we provide is largely non-formal and ongoing. Rather than focusing on preparing people for some future employment opportunities, we seek to develop our members in Christ-like character and give them the knowledge and skills that they need right now in their current context. We are all about lifelong learning, recognizing that as Christ followers living in a world that is rapidly changing, we must keep learning while we are serving.

It begins with much fanfare, promises, and declarations, as fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. Muslims believe that faithfully keeping the fast ensures one’s place of favor with God.
