HANDBOOK OF THE

INSTITUTO LINGUISTICO MACEDONIA #2

  

 The purpose of the language school will be to prepare men and women of God to go to all parts of Latin America to do the work of a missionary.  The student will be in constant contact with Peruvians and will learn to love them and their culture.  At the same time that the student is learning the language he will be learning how to have an effective ministry reaching Latins and starting churches.  From the very first day the new missionary will participate in a Spanish church.  He will sing, pray, preach, visit, win souls etc in Spanish.  It will be the goal of the school to have each student preaching and doing the work to win souls within the first year.

Rules for the LanguageSchool

1. Both husband and wife must study in the language school.

2. Language school students will not be permitted to start a church or have a ministry during the year
    of language studies.

3. Tests will be given each week over the material covered.

4. All teachers will be Latin Americans, supplemented by veteran American missionaries.

5. Class hours will be 8:30 am to 12:30 pm Tuesday through Saturday.

6. There will be homework given each day to cause each one to practice what has been taught and
    learned.  This will include listening, speaking and writing.

7. There will be 4 quarters of study.  Each quarter will consist of 10 weeks.

8. Each student and family will be required to attend all services of the Faith Independent Baptist
    Church.

9. Each student should be in Arequipa at least 2-4 weeks before beginning studies.  This will give them
    time to rent a house, furnish it, and get settled in.

10. Each student must be willing to submit to the leadership of the church and school in their studies and
    ministry plans for one year.

11. The men students--preachers will be placed with a Peruvian pastor to go visiting, run errands, etc so
      as to gain   experience.  This will supplement in their much needed practice of the language and
     relationships with national   people.

    given make up work so as to be able to complete all work that was missed.

    accept criticism with a good attitude.

15. All students must be from a Bible Believing Independent Baptist church and or mission board.

16. Teaching your children should be done in such a way as not to interfere with your language learning.
    Remember that the language is essential for the advancement of your ministry.

17. All students must agree to study one year--this is not a pick and choose cafeteria style study.

18. The cost of the language school will be $350 per month for both the husband and wife.  The cost will be $50 a
      month for each child that studies the language in addition to the parents.  This covers expense of the rent and
      utilities plus the teacher etc.  There is an additional charge for books and materials etc.  It is not a requirement for
      the children to go to language school and most never do.

19.    Each student who comes to the MacedoniaLanguageSchool in Peru casts a definite reflection on the ministry that
         is already here when they leave as a graduate of our language school.  We are a church planting, missionary
         training institution and therefore have decided that all students who come must be willing to learn all that they can
         to become effective church planters.  Therefore there will be extra classes on church planting, culture, etc.  Each
        student who is accepted will agree to take these classes and be willing to submit to the leadership of the
        MacedoniaLanguageSchool.  Books will be assigned to be read and then discussed.  We have no desire to
        simply help you learn the language but more sincerely we wish to help you be an effective church planter.  That
        means planting several churches over the life of your ministry.
