Meet our New Young Adult Service Corps Volunteers!
“Our first task in approaching another people, another culture, another religion, is to take off our shoes, for the place we are approaching is holy. Else we may find ourselves treading on men’s dreams. More serious still, we may forget that God was here before our arrival.” – Max Warren, General Secretary of the Church Missionary Society (1942-1963)
