Accommodation
- They need to relax-not clean 50 years of dirt from the oven before
they can get the coal in it! Send them somewhere YOU would LOVE to go!
Use you ITC-50 (link) card etc. to get them cheap GREAT hotels, etc. Remember,
as a bonus factor in all of this that you will reap what you sow. Missionaries
often give to live... better to live to give.

Travel
- Get them good deals (you know where they are-they don't!) or even better-pay
for them.
- Can you do without a car? Well, can they? Rent/lend/borrow/buy... Isn't
this what the two-car family is all about?!
- What about our Christian Japanese used car importers? (Remember, I
know how much you pay for those cars!)
|
Food
- Even missionaries need to eat! There must be some restaurant owners
out there somewhere.
|
$Money$
- Some cash always helps, too... the kind of amount you would like when
you go on holiday.
- Sow for your holiday NOW!
|
The Services of ...
- Doctors ...
- Dentists... Ask them when was the last time they had their teeth checked!
Did it make you run your tongue over your own!
- Lawyers ... Just in case. Missionaries have been known to run into
immigration problems, too. Sort it out for them!
- Teachers ... How can you help their kids succeed. What would you want
people to do for yours.

Communications (e-mail, webpage updates,
etc.)
- Most 'troops' will need a local ISP to connect through to check their
e-mail. Let them use yours!
- (We'll try to ensure their kids don't surf the Internet for too long!)
- Most will need to print out letters, etc. Have the printer drivers
ready for their laptops.
- They haven't got a laptop? Get them one! (if they need one). (Please
see this links page for good deals!)
- Help them with their newsletters (if no one else has already done it
for them-there should be newspaper reporters/ photographers around who
can do something great for them!). Be imaginative!
- Be prepared with contacts for both Mac and PC.
