| Testimonials |
For almost twenty years, congregations, individuals, missionaries and national church leaders have seen MOST Ministries as a leader in sending short-term mission teams around the world. Our trained team leaders are second to none. Our missiology is field-focused - we work with our missionaries and national church partners to accomplish their strategic ministry goals. Our commitment to excellence includes the safety of all our team members with an extensive crisis management plan and continuous monitoring of safety and security issues around the world. Finally, our commitment to training our teams goes beyond the team members themselves and involves the whole congregation. But don't just listen to us; listen to what our team members and our hosts around the world have to say about working with MOST Ministries!
From Our Team Members:
"I see great benefit to a partnership with MOST Ministries. MOST does all of the administrative stuff; They make travel arrangements, work with the field hosts to arrange the specific details of our projects, arrange all lodging and meals, provide travel insurance, and supply a Team Leader that will work with the team in advance of the trip and then on the field. The Team Leaders are well trained and experienced. They handle all the money details on the field -- except for personal "souvenir type" spending money. They know CPR and First Aid. They know the procedures for medically evacuating Americans out of a foreign country. MOST Ministries also provides training booklets that thoroughly equip team members both spiritually and emotionally. They provide recommendations for packing, supplies etc. ETC. For all these services, there is, of course, a slightly greater expense for the trip. But it isn't really much -- and I seriously wonder if you would not actually save through their process."
~Pastor Randall Pekari, Our Savior LCMS, Bristol, CT
"There's another side of me as a missionary I didn't realize I had."
~Sylvia Jakobeit, 642 Mexico Construction Team
"Because of MOST Ministries, I feel more driven to participate in missions. There is a time and a place for everyone in the mission field. I MUST get my congregation more involved. . . . The Bible Study booklet (Book C) was incredibly meaningful for my preparation. From the moment I started the booklet until we were on the plane coming home, I felt the Holy Spirit directing my life. What a sense of peace."
~Diana Sullivan, 622 Guatemala Medical Team
From Our Hosts:
"MOST Ministries is an excellent Christ-centered service provider of short-term mission teams."
~Pastor David Chuchu, Evangelical Lutheran Church of Kenya
"The MOST Ministries team was by far the largest group of Christians to ever visit Qiqihar, China. Their services to the Qiqihar residents was inspiring and deeply appreciated by everyone who received the glasses. The example set by an elderly member of the eyeglass team, who was over the age of 80, was especially inspiring to all. As a result of the hard work of the Most Ministries team over the five-day period, the membership of Eunkwang Church increased by 400 persons."
~Rev. Sungwan Park and Peter Koh, Lutheran Church of Korea
"Members of the congregation are already asking if you are coming back here any time. There are still some people coming to my house asking if they can have somebody take a look at their eyes. People got really amazed with the work you did, as they could feel God's grace through your initiative. Some people from the government were also interested in the idea of the clinics and said that our town will always be open for you. The members of the congregation are now more willing to work in the mission of taking Jesus' love to others, because they have received His love from a group that came from so far away. They felt this love in each one in the group, and now they think they are ready to go and share it with others, too. . . Another story comes from a person who came to the place I was to announce the Gospel. This person came to me and said: 'Look, I think I will start going to your church because of the love and the care that Mark (he was in charge of pouring eye drops on people's eyes) showed me.'"
~Pastor Alex Ziemann, Lutheran Church of Brazil
