Knowledge, Opportunity, Confidence and Impact
Learn how Research is Ministry
Meros Center Training programs equip you with the knowledge, tools, methods and connections to make an impact on the local or global stage. Learn concepts and tools to apply in your church, community and Christian life.
Your training will focus on gospel-centered health strategies, research methods, and communications skills necessary to build your skills as a researcher and a practitioner of community health outreach. These skills could enable you to bring the love of Jesus to your neighbors in a unique way, or to work with the Meros center as a research assistant. As an assistant, you will gain access to cross-cultural learning, connection to global missions, and opportunities for international travel.
This online certificate will give you the theory and skills to conduct community assessments and design a community health ministry strategy for your organization, church, or class.
This program delivers vital knowledge for community leaders, health ministry practitioners, health professionals, church leaders, non-profit workers, and others who desire to learn more about the research process and to be effective research teammates.
Research Assistant Opportunities
The Meros Center taught me the value of research and how it can support the sharing of the gospel. My time researching in Guatemala brought me to the realization of how many people are hungry for the gospel. By going through the research process, I now understand why my research with the Meros Center in Guatemala supports the expansion of the Kingdom.
