Why are we involved in ISM?

A third of all international students in the world study in the U.S. – and 80% of these never set foot in an American home! Even fewer will hear a clear presentation of the gospel. Our International Student Ministry is dedicated to “Reaching the Nations at Our Doorstep,” reaching 10 major campuses in seven states.

Reaching the World at Our Doorstep

The ultimate goal of our International Student Ministries is to cultivate thriving groups of Christian internationals that are discipled and mentored to follow Jesus, and equipped to carry the gospel to the ends of the earth!

Events

Horizons hosts events and activities not only for students, but for international professionals and families in the community. Students are welcomed into a family-like atmosphere of cultural dinners, hikes, sports, and friendship programs to foster relationships with local Americans.

How we reach international students:

Dinners

Horizons hosts events and activities not only for students, but for international professionals and families in the community. These include cultural dinners, hiking, sports, talent shows, and friendship programs to foster relationships with local Americans.

Bible Studies

Horizons hosts many Bible studies to get American and International Christians and seekers together to study the Bible. Groups are available for seekers as well as more advanced students of the Bible, and various language groups are encouraged.

ESL – English as a Second Language

Here Internationals have an opportunity to learn English in a Christian environment. Teachers build relationships with international students while teaching them how to get a better handle on the English language.

Discipleship & Mentorship

The ultimate goal is to have a thriving Christian international group that gets discipled and mentored to follow Jesus.
