short term
Maybe you have been praying about serving on a short-term mission project with The Chapel this year, but you do not know what that entails. The key steps in the process are:
- Please pray about your involvement. Is this the time and place for you to serve?
- Apply by the deadline. Application forms are at the Missions kiosk in the foyer or find a pdf below.
- Your application will be evaluated by the Short-term Missions team. Your references will be checked and the various team lists will be drawn up.
- If you do not have a passport that is valid, you will need to obtain or renew one. Passports are only required for international projects.
- You will attend a series of 4-6 team preparation meetings during ABF hour. These include scripture study, prayer, team building and practical preparation -- and are critical to successful projects.
- Participants are expected to raise prayer and financial support from friends or family outside The Chapel. The sources of funding for projects are: personal contributions, support from friends and family, and support from the Chapel via a special congregational offering.
- Participate joyfully and flexibly in the project work. There are always surprises but our goal is to adapt in order to serve others in a way that is pleasing to God.
