CARING
Providing Meaningful Support for Your LTCCW
Ongoing care need not be difficult.In fact, it’s easy to overlook. Churches can be so busy with what is in front of them that ongoing support gets set aside. You may think that your LTCCW seems to be doing fine, but how much better could he be if he had more attention from you! What you put into it will be what you get out of it.
Caring for Those You Send
Pastor Randy Sutter of the Cottonwood Vineyard says that you do't have to be a large church to effectively send and care for Long-Term Cross-Cultural Workers. His practical advice and encouragement provide tools you can begin using today.
