The Next Mile Leader Kit

Resource Description

The heartbeat of The Next Mile is built around the spiritual pilgrimage concept. It provides practical guidelines and resources to help local churches, organizations, and team leaders excel in transforming people for long-term personal change and world impact. Organizing effective short-term missions experiences begins before the trip and so does The Next Mile discipleship process. It starts before and continues long after the trip is through.

The Next Mile is produced by DELTA Ministries International in collaboration with the Missions Affinity Network (National Network of Youth Ministries) and many other organizations who believe that quality Short-Term Missions (STM) include a comprehensive follow-through process. The Leader Kit is ideal for evaluating the entire product line because it includes a Leader Guide (with Resource CD and Road Map), Goer Guide Youth Edition, Goer Guide All-Age Edition (both with Mentor Packet), and the Mile Posts Devotional.
