The Vision of Distance Education

A number of people in the AFLC have a vision of sharing biblical education around the world in the form of distance education. Pastor Kevin Olson has a burden to make the educational riches of our seminary available around the world in this form. This led to his applying to become a mission’s candidate.
The Olson's were accepted as mission’s candidates on April 3rd by the World Missions Committee. Becoming a missions candidate is the first step toward a call to world missions.

The World Missions Committee is now in the process determining the feasibility and planning distance seminary education. The planning for distance education is taking place in consultation with the AFLC Schools Board of Trustees.

This is a new endeavor for AFLC World Missions, therefore we would ask for your prayer and ideas as we consider the far reaching affects that this could have on our world.
