Where do I start?
A Ten Step Guide to Mission Involvement
1. PRAYER
Ask the Father to lead as you seek His will for
involvement in a mission project.
2. GET INFORMATION
Contact the team leader or attend information
meetings. The information you receive will help you pray
more specifically.
3. FILL OUT THE MISSION APPLICATION
Your application will provide key information the
team leader needs in order to match your gifting with
assignments. Because of the sensitive nature of some of
the information, you will need to complete, print off
and turn in the printed application. Click
here to
access the application. Please note that you will need
Adobe Acrobat to open the application.
4. START TRAINING
Many projects require specific training. The
informational brochure will explain this and we will
provide any training needed during the year.
5. GET YOUR PASSPORT
This is a requirement for all international projects.
You can not board the plane without a passport.
6. DECIDE TO GO
Return your application and make a deposit to reserve
your place. You’ll return a changed person.
7. SEEK SUPPORT
Tell your friends and family about what you’ll be
doing. Ask them to support you in prayer and financially
as you prepare and go.
8. CONTINUE TRAINING
Attend all team meetings. It is here that you bond
with your team and become prepared to minister in a
cultural context.
9. GO
Allow the Holy Spirit to minister through you as you
share the gospel with a needy world.
10. RETURN AND SHARE
Share your experiences with your small group,
supporters and church. Make plans to participate in
another mission project.
