I know that there has been some "quantifiable" studies that it doesn't make an impact but I think that there are some profound moments of insight for those who go and those who receive. I think just giving money is a hollow way of approaching missions. It is a reality but an incomplete one. I think that if there are a long term (not a flavor of the year) approach to short term missions where there is a strategic and accountable integration of the work towards a real impact then I think it is worth exploring...it is a healthy relationship that is not just a financial exchange but one of mutual sharing. those are my thoughts...
