Missionary Care
 
The challenges of a missionary's extraordinary task exposes them to unusual dangers in a culture not their own.
Missionaries have often fallen on the field of battle because of burnout and depression while others have experienced a sense of loneliness and abandonment. A few have even been wounded by “friendly fire” when sponsoring churches lacked sensitivity.
 
Highland Oaks cares about the health and well-being of missionaries and their families. In partnership with former missionary and psychology professor, Dorris Schulz, Ph.D., and the Missions Resource Network, a variety of missionary care services are provided to nurture to the unique needs of missionaries.
 
The ability to access accurate, professional materials for a variety of missionary needs, is vital to sustained ministry and the Mission Resouce network provides support services to both missionaries and their sponsoring churches. MRN worshops and seminars help candidates learn team building skills, discover potential problems and provide tools for conflict resolution and crisis intervention. Reentry services, stateside debriefing, and career counseling are also offered for returning missionaries.
