What are the necessary steps that the sending church must take to adequately support its LTCCW?Cross-Cultural Q&ACraig Simonian, Bob Harper, Robby Dawkins, Mike Walker, Chris ReyesA strong sending team is essential. Sending with a team and a primary leader are very important. Watch out for “ministry drift.” Partnerships and sending churches need to set parameters for the work and work in concert with those on location. If sending churches are not a safe place LTCCWs will not reach out if they are struggling. Written contracts are helpful for the church and worker as they commit to each other.
