Send Forth With Honor

You and your missionary have waited years for this day to arrive. Finally, it is here! The day your missionary boards an airplane destined for the mission field. But, now what? As a parent, how can you be most supportive of your missionary as he or she serves? How can you offer the right amount of support as your missionary returns home? These are the questions which motivated the author, Randy Bott, to compile advice resulting from his own experience and the accounts of many other parents and missionaries. Send Forth with Honor is packed with practical ideas on how you, as a parent, can more effectively help your missionary succeed in the following areas: * securely make the decision to serve a full-time mission for the Lord. * prepare to serve honorably by encouraging personal worthiness and providing opportunities for mission-like activities. * deal with feelings of homesickness and lonliness. * cope with the "growing opportunities" that daily mission life provides. * stand independently valiant and faithful after successfully completing a mission. Brother Bott is a pragmatist. He believes that if we can prepare, support, and welcome home our sons and daughters more effectively, then we can help to maximize the lessons they learned from their missions and help them to maintain a cutting edge as they move into the next important phase of their lives. According to Brother Bott, the principless learned in the mission field should act as a "springboard into a successful professional and family life." --- from book's back cover
