A mission trip or overseas volunteer assignment is not so much a physical or cultural journey as it is a spiritual journey. As such, sending churches are strongly encouraged to commission their volunteers prior to departure, and to pledge their prayerful support and encouragement. Here are a few Commissioning Service guidelines and litanies that you are free to use as prepared, or modify to meet your needs and circumstances.
In addition to these documents, Reformed Worship has prepared ‘Sending Forth,’ which can be found here.
