If you are considering going on a missions trip or plan to work as a missionary, raising support to fund your ministry is a significant challenge. Trust me, I know. I've been there! That's why I suggest you visit Raising-Support.com. My friend Barry McLeish and I just launched an online training program for missionaries and Christian workers who face the task of raising support for ministry work. It's called "Partners for Life!" And we've designed it to be a comprehensive training program with loads of video training as well as downloadable materials, special reports, podcasts and more.
Over 25 years working with ministries and missions of all sorts, Barry and I have seen an increasing problem: Far too many missionaries are taking two, three or more years to get to their assignment. It simply shouldn't be this way. And it need not be -- with the proper training. But many ministries are poorly equipped and trained to provide this type of specialized "partner development" training to their new recruits -- and even their longtime missionaries struggle to remain at their assignments with full support.
We want missionaries to learn how to create a partner team quickly -- and to maintain, and even delight, that team throughout the course of their work together. That's what our site is about.
If YOU are struggling -- or your organization needs help, or friends or missionaries you know are struggling -- may we suggest you visit Raising-Support.com.
