Missionary Training and 6 Other Things We Do
Missionary Training
Helping missionaries improve their skills in caring for each other is one of the goals of our ministry. From member care specialists to area leaders, we provide training for those in team leadership, member care, and for missionaries on the field who want to learn how to better care for their colleagues. We do this through workshops, conferences, and personal coaching.
Missionary Debriefing
Debriefing is a process of guided reflection of one’s experiences, focusing on the impact of those experiences as it relates to inner matters of the heart - and how God has been at work in these experiences. Effective debriefing allows one to process the past and the present for the purpose of moving into the future with a greater degree of effectiveness. Because we are trained facilitators not affiliated with a particular mission agency, sending church, or ministry organization, Christian workers perceive us to be safe because we protect their confidentiality. We conduct debriefing sessions at our office, your office, or missionary conferences.

for details on this unique growth opportunity for missionaries to become better equipped to care for their colleagues. It's a great chance to receive missionary care training with other Christian workers from many different sending agencies. We conduct these at various retreat facilities we use, or at your site just with your staff. Counseling
In addition to providing preventative care, we also offer restorative care through our pastoral counseling services. Relationship problems, dealing with loss, trauma, and team dynamics are just a few of the issues for which we provide counseling. Helping the Church Care for its Missionaries
The church plays a vital role in caring for missionaries and our goal is to serve as a resource in this important area. We do this through workshops, speaking to various church ministries, pulpit supply, coaching, and consultation. We also help missionaries in improving their relationships with their supporting churches. Speaking
We have served as missionary conference speakers, both domestically and internationally, and are available to speak at your conference or missionary training workshop Strategic Planning
We provide a fresh set of eyes and an outside perspective in thinking through "big picture" issues related to member care. Our experience in observing best practices in a variety of mission organizations could be helpful to yours. How can we improve our missionary training as it relates to member care? How can our leaders at every level better deal with people problems? How do we get supporting churches more involved in caring for our workers? and other concerns like these are issues we can help you think through. We also lead and facilitate board of directors' retreats, as well as staff retreats.
