There is a new generation of Christians and missionaries burning with love for Jesus, being sent across the Earth. They are the sincere saints with vast hearts beating in rhythm with the heart of their beloved King Jesus, carrying His glory to all nations.
Fearless and devoted, they know a love that knows no bounds and are ready to run into the darkest places to bring the lost, the dying, the poor, and the broken into God's kingdom.
Jesus came with an overflowing love for every individual and for the masses. Now, we must do the same: give attention and love to every person. Come and have a transformative experience with missions and missionaries, learning intensely and practically in an environment filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit and the presence of God.
What is Iris Global School Rio?
Iris Global School Rio is a full-time mission school with the primary goal of teaching Christians to wholeheartedly seek the face of God, so they can love Him, glorify Him, and delight in Him forever. Our aim is also to awaken them to go forth and equip them to proclaim Jesus to all nations. He is our salvation, our prize, our reward, our inheritance, our destiny, our motivation, and our joy. Jesus is absolutely everything to us and all that we need today and forever.
The next opportunity to be a part of this transformation will be from January 12th to February 3rd, 2024.
With joy and gratitude for your life,

This school is an invitation to dive deeper into the river of life. Submerged in the presence of God, you will be touched, transformed, and strongly ministered to by the Holy Spirit.
God invites us to dive into His presence, which every day gives us new opportunities to go deeper, surrendering ourselves completely until we are fully seized by His presence and surrendered to His love.
We believe with all our hearts that during the school you will be taken to these deep waters, to a live encounter with God. We believe that the days in the school will result in a life of discovery and obedience to live out your missionary calling.
