Statistics say millions are going on short-term mission (STM) trips every year. Undoubtedly the vast majority are coming home excited to get others involved, especially those from their church.

Myth #2 – Sending STM teams means my church is missions-minded.

Myth #3 – I can inspire my church to action by myself.
