Are you interested in missions or support someone about to embark on a mission trip? Over Encompass’s 120+ years of sending missionaries, we’ve noticed some common concerns people often have regarding health and safety. It’s wise to have a plan, so here is some of our advice.
While it’s wise to prepare as much as we can, we shouldn’t live in fear. Ultimately, God is the one we rely on for health and safety everyday at home, and He is the one we should also rely on for health and safety overseas. Following God’s call usually comes with risks, but one of our values is “prayer that leads to vision that leads to risk-taking faith,” because we know that doing things God’s way is always worth it!
