Round Trip Video Curriculum & Leader's Guide <b><font color=red>Free Shipping!</b></font color=red>

OVERVIEW

Do short-term missions trips simply equal Christian tourism?

If we were honest, many of us would admit that this is often true. It’s not what we want. We make plans for a life-changing trip, but it’s only a few weeks after the trip that we realize things are just back to normal.

So how do we turn a short-term trip into long-term impact? How do we change the lives of the participants as well as the hosts we’re visiting? How do we turn cross-cultural missions trips into long-lasting global partnerships?

It’s these questions that Round Trip from RoundTripMissions.com will help you answer. If you're leading a short-term missions trip, this 5-week video curriculum and leader's guide will help you prepare your team for an effective, life-changing trip. It covers the practical prep stuff, but it goes beyond that to equip your team emotionally and spiritually as you get ready to go...and when you return. View Sample Curriculum (PDF). (And, don't forget, you'll need each of your team members to have their own Participant's Guide to follow along and interact during your use of the Round Trip curriculum.)

Your team will especially connect with the documentary video that captures the experiences of two short-term missions teams: one from Chapel Hill Bible Church in North Carolina, the other from Mavuno Downtown, part of the Nairobi Chapel network of churches in Kenya. They partner together and are both deeply committed to church planting, evangelism, and caring for the poor. Theirs is a story of individuals and families from America and Africa who open themselves up to what God is doing in the world.

Session 1: Short-Term Missions, Lasting Change
Watch a documentary of two short-term teams and discuss your expectations for the trip.

Session 2: The Preparations
Discuss visas, immunizations, packing, and support-raising.

Session 3: Cross-Cultural Encounters
Train your team to have sensitive cross-cultural encounters.

Session 4: Uprooted Emotions, Grounded Faith
Prepare for culture-shock, learn how to effectively debrief, and discuss your team dynamic.

Session 5: Living with a Broader Perspective
Meet immediately after your trip to dialogue about your experiences, your feelings upon returning, and action steps for living here in light of what you saw over there.

Round Trip includes trip calendars, advice from seasoned experts, pointers on how to connect with host churches, and more. This guide will equip you to lead an effective, life-changing short-term missions trip.
