  • Kelli Nelson and Don McCrabb led this webinar on September 10th to help people give voice to their mission experience and frame their mission story for a wide variety of audiences. We learned how to engage our listeners, as well as reconnect with our mission experiences, reflect on them, and articulate them.

    Access the slide deck used in the webinar here.

    Remaining Faithful: A Guide for Reflecting on Short-Term Mission Experiences
