I do not think you have to go abroad to be on the mission field. I think it is actually harder to minister to people in our own back yard than across the world. I know I have done both.
Our really good friends, the Lowthorps have become missionaries in the town of Georgetown. They gave up their two-story house to move into a local apartment community to become a CARES team. They are the hands and feet to the apartment community. Any time a new person moves into the community, they welcome them. Each month, they host various fellowships, outreaches and various events to create a community within the apartment complex. This past month, Pam collected clothes so the children could have a back-to-school clothes swap. They host monthly events for the single moms including free babysitting. I think it would be an amzing opportunity for a young married couple, although they do it with their two children. I love to see what they are doing each month and get updates b/c we are on their prayer team. I am so blessed to call you friends!!
