Your Personal Development

You will be part of our Personal Development Programme, which is aligned to your current stage of discipleship and will help you grow in your relationship to God and others. 

The Programme - You will have a Personal Tutor who intentionally develops a mentoring relationship with you. All Redcliffe tutors have first-hand experience of the thrills and stresses of cross-cultural service. He or she will meet formally with you five times a year and you will also join your tutor and their other students for a weekly pastoral small group. Your tutor is also available to talk with you informally as often as you need.

Part of this programme will involve a self-assessment that you work through with your Personal Tutor. You also have the option of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator as a tool to increase your understanding of yourself and how to relate to others more effectively.

Our conviction is that Christian character, including a healthy self-esteem, a willingness to serve others, and resilience is a prerequisite for demanding cross-cultural work.
