What are HG schools about?
The aim of Holy Given: International School of Missions is to train Christian believers from all denominations, all countries, all races, and all levels of socio-economic status to be missionaries to the nations. The goal is to raise up a company of believers who will catch the heartbeat of God that yearns for all humanity to know Him while taking part in His call to the body of Christ to go into all the earth.
At Holy Given schools participants receive sound biblical teaching and ministry led by Holy Spirit. Our lives as believers must form a weaving of what we believe and how we live, so students are taught to live in the fullness of the Kingdom of God here-and-now and are given the opportunity to reflect and learn from what they put into practice in class, field trips and in local outreaches.
