STEP = Student Tuition Expense Program

STEP helps children and young people in 14 countries receive an education in a Christian environment.

A monthly contribution of $15/child or $25/young person provides not only for the student’s educational needs, but also for assistance with food, clothing, books, and other school supplies.

During the World Mission Conference you will have the chance to be the feet of Christ, and take some STEPs to change a life! The STEP walk fundraiser is 4 kilometers or 2.5 miles. There’s no age limit to participate!
