This is a great resource for your team. I used this book last year and will do so again this year. I like the exercises and "fill-in-the-blanks" that encourage you to think deeper as to why you are going on this trip. It also contains good practical advice.

These pages are chocked full of valuable information for anyone planning a TEAM trip! Pros in short-term missions, Authors Kim & Chris provide great tips and insight in making your trip successful! For a terrific mission trip this is the guide to follow!

"Vacations With a Purpose" is a crucial tool for anyone leading or participating in a short-term mission or service trip abroad. Whether it's your first trip or your 100th, you'll find useful and easy to follow preparation activities, team member guidelines, packing lists, and much more. My leaders gave us these books for two trips on which I participated, and it really helped me know what to expect, how to prepare, and how to apply the lessons I learned once back at home. Since then I have used "Vacations With a Purpose" when leading teams myself, and have also recommended the book to other leaders. You will not be disappointed!

I've used the VWAP for years. I know of no other single resource that provides such a thorough overview of the short-term missions experience. It contains great information, exercises, and questions to stimulate thinking. Your team members will be better equipped for their experience if they have this book.
