<p><strong>What is Short Term Missions?  </strong></p>
<p>Is a week long trip?  A month? A year?  Is it for youth, single adults or families?  Maybe it is all of that…and maybe it could be something else…</p>
<p>Maybe it is an active engagement with your community that takes many different shapes and forms….Not going away to serve, but staying at home to love…</p>
<p>A new way of looking at Short Term Missions can be summed up in the Greatest Commandment that Jesus gave us,</p>
<p align="center"><strong><em>‘Love God and Love your neighbour.’(Matt.22:37-39)</em></strong></p>
<p>Not another program.</p>
<p>                                                              Not another committee needed.</p>
<p>Not an outreach gimmick.</p>
