WASHINGTON (UMNS)—A new advocacy guide for church mission teams
traveling internationally has been prepared by Bread for the World in
conjunction with its religious partners, including the United Methodist
Committee on Relief and Church World Service. “Getting Ready to Come
Back” is designed to help such teams understand the root causes of
hunger and poverty in the communities and countries they visit. Tools
throughout the resource help teams prepare for their trip, reflect on
their experiences, and take action once back home—all with the goal of
making a long-term impact by helping address the causes of hunger and
poverty. The guide also includes Bible studies, suggested discussion
topics and prayers for each part of the journey. Copies can be ordered
or downloaded at:
www.bread.org/advocacyguide.
