Short Term Missions

Fall is a preparatory season for Short Term Missions at my church. Our STM Ministry Team is currently reviewing and revising our mission statement and other aspects of how we "do short-term missions" through our chuch. This is also the time of year we receive opportunities from our missionaries around the world for teams to come participate with them during the next year. We review each opportunity with prayer that leaders will be brought forward with a heart to lead and the skills necessary to lead a team in the support of each requesting missionary. This fall the Sunday School ministry team I have served with for the last few years, 20/30 Something, is looking into leading a mission trip for members of our class. I am very excited about the potential opportunities that will be presented to 20/30 leadership as there is an opportunity for us to take a team to Europe with Euro-Team. I am praying about whether it will be possible for me to participate on a trip with my current ministry/church again before I leave Oregon to serve in Europe full-time.
