Most people do different things in different periods of their lives.  It is common to do a term of cross-cultural ministry right after college, and then take a job at home.  There are many missions organizations and agencies looking for Christians willing to give of their time and talents to God’s Kingdom purposes!  You can find them through your denomination or through Eastern’s connections.  Some will be willing to pay on student loans while you are abroad.  When you return to the United States (or are finished your period of missions within the U.S.) you will have anthropological training that can be used for meaningful work in a variety of cross-cultural, or inter-cultural, settings at home.
