Leading a short-term mission team is a lot of work. On the field, there's a lot to keep track of and there never seems to be enough time for everything. The GO Mobilization Packet is a tool that's designed to fit seemlessly into a short-term mission experience, helping to bridge three key gaps and give your team members an accurate perspective of how God sees:
-
Calling, skill-sets and missions - Is there a specific call to involvement in God's global purpose?
-
Unreached vs. Reached people groups - what is the 10-40 and are there still people who have never heard of Christ and the gospel?
-
Short-term and Longer-term - what would going for longer term look like? What type of people does God use? What type of people is the world crying out for?
The SVM2 GO Mobilization packet is a tool for short term mission trip leaders to use to challenge their students to long term involvement among the least reached.
There are three core messages that are a part of the packet, each 1 hour in duration. Knowing that most short term mission experiences are intense and leaders are often very busy with trip details, the GO Packet allows each of these messages to be done basically ‘right out of the box’ with only minimal preparation.
The core messages are:
1. The Reason: The Biblical Basis of Mission
Use audio CD or Bible Study outline
2. The Need: The Unreached
Interactive Activity: A Glimpse at the World
3. The Call: A Short Term Trip is Not Enough
