Short Term Missions Program: Step 2

STEP 2

Support Raising Guidelines

➜    A missionary’s initial individual support letter must be approved by the pastor over missions before sending, and must be accompanied by a cover letter of introduction by the pastor over missions.  These initial letters may be sent only to family members, friends and acquaintances and not to a general mailing list of members of Neighborhood Church.  

➜    All finances received over and above the established financial need for a missionary will go into the Neighborhood Church Missions Fund.

➜    A missionary may not send support letters or emails to a mass mailing list of Neighborhood Church members or people that are not personally acquainted with the missionary.

➜    A monthly newsletter may be sent to a mailing list comprised of supporters that would include news, updates and prayer requests.

➜    Checks are made payable to the sponsoring missions agency and designated to the short-term missionary.
