There most likely will be the need for intense training sessions to attain the required number of births to meet the NARM standards. These range from $250.00/week to $500.00/week. It is best to stay 3-6 weeks. The school’s plan is to raise funds for this. These centers are in Utah. The way the parents can help is to set up times of fund raising in their church and community. Diane plans to speak to share the heart of the school, the vision to your community and churches, to see ways people can help.
In addition to the intense training, it is the goal to take the students to a training center outside of the US to learn missionary midwifery. This will take place in the 3rd year. This is not set up right now, so we ask for prayers as the Lord guides us to the place and the cost. This is another fundraiser project.
