Follow Through for Mid-Termers and Individuals

Friday, 3:30 – 4:45 PM

Presented by: Brian Heerwagen

There are many follow-through resources for STM teams traveling for days or weeks at a time. But the experiences of those serving as individuals or families and who are on the mission field for several months or longer require a more robust approach to follow-through. We’ll explore the nuances of longer terms of service and consider strategies for effective follow-through. Together, our workshop group can be part of helping to develop new resource for this important and growing segment of short-term missions!

Primary Audience: Those sending individuals or families for ministries between 4 weeks and 3 years
