Short-term outreach changes lives; both those of parishioners who get involved, as well as those to whom the action is directed. This practical manual will no doubt assist in the process of life formation for the mission field. Nico speaks from experience and from the heart. — Rev. Richard Verreyne — World Thrust
For the past plus minus ten years, different groups and persons have gone on short-term outreaches to different parts of the world. In most cases, there was no manual that could provide positive guidance. The result was that basic mistakes were often made that could have been avoided. A thorough manual is an absolute necessity and is entirely indispensable for whoever wants to go on a short-term outreach somewhere in the world. It would be irresponsible to send a person or group out into the wide world without such a manual. Furthermore, it is very important that the manual will be thoroughly worked through by everyone who goes on an outreach. — Rev. Japie du Plessis — Previous Chair of the Commission for World Mission of the Dutch Reformed Church.
This manual meets a long-felt need for effective planning and maximum effectiveness of short-term outreach teams to the mission field from the local congregations. — Past Christo Walters (Apostolic Faith Mission Church)
