"Our time here at CIT has been a tremendous experience for me. My wife and I have not only grown closer to God, but to each other as well. We feel fully equipped to enter the mission field and not only survive, but thrive. No future missionary should even consider entering the field before investing in this kind of training. We have been truly blessed and will forever be grateful to God that He has included CIT as a vital part of our pathway to India!"
