Short Term Missions Program: Step 1

STEP 1

Acceptance

A short-term missionary is a member who senses God’s call to serve as a missionary for less than three months with an approved missions organization.  Short-term missionaries must be current members of Neighborhood Church and/or have a significant history with the ministry of Neighborhood Church. Individuals may participate as short-term missionaries of Neighborhood Church when the following requirements are met:
 

• Recommendation from a Neighborhood Church pastor.
• Participation with a Neighborhood Church approved missions organization and alignment with our short-term missions policies.
• Receive acceptance after filling out the appropriate short-term application.
• Follow the guidelines of fundraising as set forth in the short-term missions application and mentor process.
• Remain accountable to the pastor who oversees missions.
• Remain within the budget set by the missions team, per person, per trip.
• Maintain that the nature of the trip is evangelistic, discipleship or humanitarian.
• Once the application is received and reviewed, you will receive a phone call of acceptance or denial from the pastor over missions.
• If you are accepted as a short-term missionary, your next step will be to have an appointment with one of our mission mentors who will help guide you through our process.
