• What does it mean for me to go on this trip – what are the responsibilities that accompany going on a short-term mission trip?
For your assignment this week, you need the “CBC Philosophy of short-term missions: Assumptions” document This was the first page of the pink handout you got on Wednesday. It’s also posted here at the blog under “March.” Read the document, and create a post in which you discuss the following:
- Are there any of these assumptions with which you disagree? Which ones? Why?
- Choose three assumptions strongly agree with. Explain why you feel strongly, then explain what we need to do because of or as a result of the assumption. For example, if I feel strongly about the 4th assumption, which basically says we don’t know as much as we should about the world, then what we need to do is learn about the people we are going to serve. My post would be a lot longer than that, but that’s the basic idea.
