Working across cultures, difficulties with co-workers, frustrations with sponsoring organisations, unpredictable political situations and fragile residency permits are just some of the demands that take their toll. Since 1987 Bethany has aimed to minister to the whole person by providing a place where they can rest, retreat and be refreshed. We offer space, prayer and encouragement and, for those who request help with specific problems, professional counselling. This will supplement the facilities available within Mission Organisations as well as equipping those who are working outside such groups. This kind of support plays a valuable role in enabling Christian workers to be more effective in their own ministries. This may avoid the need for cross cultural workers to return to their home countries for help, which averts the sense of failure that might accompany such action and prevents the loss of valuable workers. Other reasons for which people come to us include:- Re-entry An insulating space between ministry
and home church. Debriefing at end of service period Third culture kids (TCK's) |
