'Do it well' – Plan Ahead
The ‘Do It Well’ Mission Toolkit is set of easy-to-read booklets offers helpful advice and practical tips to those who are responsible for 'sending', as well as those who will be 'going on', short-term mission teams overseas.
Much of the content is also highly relevant for individuals who may be planning to engage short-term in mission in an overseas context.
The toolkit consists of five A5-sized booklets:
- Thinking of Going?
- Doing the Groundwork
- Ready, Steady, Go!
- Finishing Well
- Resources and Links
Copies may be download from the link above or printed copies may be purchased at a cost of £5 (postage is extra) from the Congregational Life and Witness office, Assembly Buildings, Fisherwick Place, Belfast BT1 6DW. Tel: +44 (0)28 9041 7246 or email clw@presbyterianireland.org
