1. Get to know some mission partners.
Find out about workers on-the-ground across the world so you can engage with what they’re doing. (Reading prayer letters and browsing http://crosslinks.org are good places to start!).

2. Encourage those on-the-ground.
Friendship and encouragement from afar can help mission partners keep going long-term. Emails, phone calls and letters are great (postcards have been particularly appreciated by children stuck in lockdown!).

3. Pray!
You may be stuck at home, but by praying you join your mission partner in frontline mission. God can act mightily to bring people to faith whatever the circumstances, so pray for this!

4. Prepare for when restrictions are over.
They will come to an end one day, so whenever that day is, be ready for it! If you’re thinking about going overseas, do some online training, connect with people in ministry or get an application going to be a Crosslinks Mission Partner

5. Get others on board too.
Tell others about the mission work you’re getting involved with. Grow the team of people praying for your mission partners. Encourage friends and family to get involved in global gospel proclamation.
