Going on a short-term mission trip can be thrilling, stretching and scary. To help you and your church mission team be prepared spiritually, Melissa Heiland of Beautiful Feet International and IMB have partnered to create a 31-day devotional for short-term missions partners. You will be able to relate to personal stories of others who have traveled overseas with teams to share the gospel with a lost world. Each devotion begins with a suggested Scripture passage to review, a devotional story and a prayer. Melissa brings her own personal experience as a former missionary and current short-term mission team leader within each daily reflection. A helpful timeline of things your team needs to do before departure is included in the index. This booklet is the perfect tool for your short-term team to read the month preceding your mission trip!
