Each year we take in new members between the ages of 18 and 26 to join the Abundant Life team for a year or longer to Training and Service and Mission at Abundant Life.  The  group receives four months of extensive training (and enjoyable activities) at the beginning of the year to complete their certificate courses and prepare for their service and mission activities in the rest of the year. Experts in each field of training come from all over South Africa to provide the necessary training to ensure that once the members go out, they are thoroughly equipped to spread the gospel and fulfill the mission of Abundant Life.

In the remaining part of the year the group does several other courses (and enjoyable activities) and go on tours to various parts of the country to do programs of service, mission, and outreach to schools, institutions, churches and communities. We also do various camps, hikes, bicycle marathons etc.  We also do some quite unexpected fun games and activities such as the Amazing Race etc. to build resourcefulness and self-confidence.
