4) Short-Term Mission Trip Assessment Tool —

Here’s a new tool to help churches and ministries discern if they should send a short-term mission team. Have you ever wondered if your church or ministry should send a short-term mission (STM) team? With all the needs and all the opportunities, how do you know where to go and what to do? Recognizing that many churches and ministries wrestle with determining which STMs to promote and move forward with, DELTA Ministries International (DELTA) has recently released the Short-Term Mission Trip Assessment Tool. This assessment has been broken into three major categories of consideration: Calling, Stewardship and Quality. Within each category include critical assessments for your STM derived from the Word of God, experience, as well as the Standards of Excellence in Short-Term Mission (SOE). Along with the STM Assessment Tool, you will receive a free supplement guide. It will provide insight needed to assess your church and mission trip objectively as well as provide a target to work towards as you develop your short-term mission sending program. Visit
