I'm putting an offer out there to any twenty-something who's ever dreamed of giving up on their own independence and moving to live in community with other followers of Christ. When young people come back from mission trips, having had an amazing experience with their teams, they are yearning for this sort of covenantal lifestyle. Too many young people live independently when they were designed to be in community.  If this is you, let me encourage you to come to Georgia next year and live with a dozen or so other radicals like yourself. It's the best thing you can do for yourself.  We're calling it ComLife.  I guarantee, it will rock your world.  Here are the details:

AIM will provide housing here in Gainesville where a group of 10-15 will live in a neighborhood with easy access to being involved in the community. We believe there are five major ingredients involved in Community Life.

Mentoring from AIM's leadership: As part of creating a personal development plan, you will be paired up with a leader here at AIM who will meet one-on-one with you regularly and give you coaching, encouragement, and perspective. This includes intensive teaching to help you understand where God has brought you so far, who you are, and how to move forward in the plan God has for you for the rest of your life. You will work on your own, in small group settings, and along the way hear from some of the best experienced and inspirational mentors AIM has.

Skill development: You will expand your skills. You'll have an internship in the office in an area such as recruiting, marketing, creative writing/editing, mobilization, web design, and program development. This will be an opportunity to develop valuable employment skills through hands-on training in an office environment.

Ministry: In order to stay in touch with your heart in bearing fruit in hands on ministry, we've partnered with a local ministry with outreach to the 60,000 Hispanics in and around Gainesville.

Travel: To keep engaging with the world, there will be opportunities for travel to lead various discipleship programs for high school and college students around the world.

Sample internships: To keep engaging with the world, there will be opportunities for travel to lead various discipleship programs for high school and college students around the world.

Travel Options: Mexico, USA road trips, one week and one month mission trips around the world. Through the course of the year, there will be options to visit our base in Matamoros, Mexico, tour and do ministry in New York City, or be a Servant Leader for an Ambassador trip in the summer.

Once we receive your application, we'll send more details and contact you to discuss the program. If you have questions, please call 1-800-881-2461 ext. 217 or contact our Admissions Department
