Willingness to serve, adaptability, and caring for others. Dedicated to Christ, faithful to their local churches, consistent Christian living. Loving even in uncomfortable or less than ideal situations. Previous experience and training are not always prerequisites for service. Openings for general assistance are available where tasks can be learned upon arrival on a field.
Missionary service is a work of faith.
All Home Missions MAPS volunteers work with missions ministries, most of which are unable to pay a salary, and must raise their own fare and monthly support. This is usually done from one's home church, friends, family, and personal funds. Churches will receive a receipt and World Missions credit and individuals will receive a tax-deductible receipt for their contributions. Contributions are needed to enable us to continue recruiting, placing, and sustaining the many volunteers in missions work in America.
