The vision to start a missionary training school was birthed in the heart of Brother Worley while traveling in Papua New Guinea during which time he saw a man standing on a rock waving his arms and crying out. The man had gone to a coastal city and had gotten saved, but didn't know anything about Christianity. He was trying to stop someone on the road and get them to come to his village to tell his people about Jesus. The man had been sitting on that rock every day from sunrise until dusk for eight years, waiting for the Lord to send someone to his village.

Four years later Brother Worley and Missionary Graham Baker were driving down the same road in the same area. The same man was still on the rock trying to get someone to come to his village. He had been there for a total of twelve years. Brother Baker explained to Brother Worley that there were hundreds of such villages and simply not enough workers to send into the harvest. But the man on the rock had made an impression on Brother Worley that he could not get out of his mind. He could not sleep or rest. He had visions of thousands of villages all over the world crying out for help.

From this simple scene on a back road in Papua New Guinea was born a vision for Faith Training Center, a short-term training program to prepare missionaries to go throughout the world. When Brother Worley returned to Walhalla, SC in 1971, he was led by God to purchase an old farm place on which to establish the training center. With faith in his heart, he saw God's provision bring the vision into reality. Since that time, hundreds of students have gone through Faith Training Center into all the world as missionaries, pastors, evangelists, teachers and mission workers.

Now the fulfillment of A.S. Worley’s vision lives on as Faith Training Center continues to flourish in teaching and preparing disciples to go into all the world.
