A major focus for CALMS is equipping leaders. We do this by sending staff,
individuals volunteers and short-term teams to build the capacity of Central
American Leaders.
We also equip North American leaders to understand other
cultures, to work with each other and Central American leaders effectively
and to apply good mission principles as they work.
Recently, CALMS staff
members, including Pastor Steve Hughey and his wife Grace, led a team of future short-term leaders on a "get-to-know-the-mission-field" trip to Guatemala.
These leaders learned about the culture, met key partners and were helped to understand the mission principles needed to minister effectively with a short-term team.
CALMS invites leaders considering a short-term mission experience in 2011, to join a similar "get-to-know-the-mission-field" trip this fall. For more information, contact CALMS at calms@calms.org.
