Go and See Ministries: Interns and Economics

COMING SOON!   Interns and Economics.

Keep an eye on our website http://goandseeministries.org/ over the next several weeks as we will be adding two new pages detailing the two new ministry focuses we have been working on developing. In addition to hosting short-term missions teams we want to begin an internship "program" and work in an area of economics that we are very excited about.

Interns:

We have shied away from labeling anything we do a "program" because we believe that ministry is just "life", the things we do as we "live". That describes perfectly what we want to do for young people, mainly between the ages of 17 and 21. We want them to come and live with us, join in with what we are doing and experience life in another culture. We have, over the past several months, begun talking to some of our acquaintances about the possibility of inviting their teenage children to come to Honduras for a visit when we get settled in. This has been met with such an overwhelmingly positive response that we have decide to make this a part of what Go and See Ministries does.

We believe that spending several weeks to several months in a foreign country, experiencing another culture, learning the language, helping in ministry and giving of oneself, especially during these critical late teenage years, can be one of the most rewarding and potentially life changing events one may ever encounter. We want to do our part, as a family and as a ministry, in making that happen.

We are currently working on laying a foundation for this ministry. We want to make sure that the time spent with us is a quality experience, that it is geared specifically towards the intern's gifts, interest and personality. We want to make sure that those who come are coming for the right reasons.

As with everything we do, we want our part in it to be free of charge. Obviously, there will be cost for the interns, both prior to and during the time they are with us, but our hope is to make this extremely affordable so that anyone will be able to come.

Because we are a small, family ministry, space will be limited. Already we have had a number of people, parents and teens alike, interested in doing this. If this is something you or your teen is interested in, please email me at wolfeent@copper.net for more information or watch our website as we will be putting detailed information there soon.

Micro Economics:

I call this dream of mine "micro economics". The term, micro economics, is actually used to describe something different than what I use it for, but because the words "micro economics" or "economics on a small scale basis" describes perfectly what I want to do, I use it. This idea for ministry is something that I, personally, am very excited about and one that has been growing in my mind and heart for sometime now. It fits naturally into my life's experience and something that I have always been passionate about and I know that it will be life changing for those who partner with me.
