Parents as Partners: Supporting Your Family as They Serve Overseas book
|
|
Watching a child leave for the mission field is a challenge for any parent. Instead of feeling left behind, this book will aid you in becoming a vital part of the IMB family.
“I can begin to understand the pain of extended separation now that both of my children have been appointed missionaries. I understand the sacrifice in not being able to enjoy normal, frequent time with grandchildren, and I can identify with the intense longing for news from those faraway places. God’s calling in your child’s life is a calling to you as well, and just as His grace is sufficient for them, there is a special grace for the parents of missionaries.”
Jerry Rankin, President
International Mission Board
