Senders Covenant As SENDERS you are being asked to support and encourage your STIM friend or family member in the following ways : 1. Prayer with your friend or family member before and after each STIM weekend. 2. Prayer with your friend or family member before he or she leaves for the summer experience. 3. Ask your friend or family member to share his or her goals, concerns, fears and expectations for the summer experience with you. 4. If possible, write your friend or family member a letter of encouragement and support before he or she leaves and either send it ahead of time to greet him or her upon arrival or send it with your friend with instructions to be opened upon arrival. 5. If possible, write the person several times during the course of the summer experience. (Have low expectations for return letters!) 6. Continue to pray for your friend or family member faithfully during the summer experience. 7. Meet with your friend or family member soon after he/she arrives home. Pray with and for the person upon his or her return. Provide an opportunity for him or her to openly share both the joys and frustrations experienced during the summer experience. Ask lots of questions. Give the person a listening ear and not a judgmental heart. 8. Continue to pray and ask questions of the person as he or she adjusts to being back in the United States (whether at school, work, or home) and as he or she may be considering future involvement in missions work. We understand our role as SENDERS and gladly accept the responsibility of providing support and encouragement to our STIM friend or family member : SENDERS signed: ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ________________________________________
