Brigada participant, Karissa, wrote this past week to ask where one should turn to learn more about the practical side of becoming a missionary. Answers to her question could range from the “daily life” questions all the way to how to learn a foreign language and how to avoid cross-cultural misunderstandings. In fact, she could also need to know the ultra-practical side of just … how to live life in rustic environments. Obviously, it’s a very broad topic — but where would you send her for starters? Would you ask her to begin by visiting a site like

http://www.askamissionary.com/

Are there other sites like this? … or will she have to go in person to an onsite training experience hosted by someone like

https://www.mti.org/

or

http://traininternational.org

Where would you send her? (Please click “Comment” under the web or app version of this item. Thanks!)
