Support.
- Church members can be supported through the mission department.
- All participants will send out support letters where funds will to into a team fund. It will not go toward a specific person.
- Comment**: Some individuals are very familiar within church and can generate enough support to cover their entire cost. While this is great, each person must make a personal investment into his/her trip. This means a personal payment must be submitted by each participant. A team fund will help each member receive financial support.
