Central Asia and Southeast Asia - Hastings Family

Vision

This team will join long term partners who work with the most vulnerable in their community. Many refugees flee their war-torn countries to this area and are not met with kindness. 

The team is committed to showing these displaced brothers and sisters the hands and feet of Christ. They believe the transformation of communities ensures that no one is invisible and everyone has access to food, freedom, and forgiveness.

What's Expected 

As team members are learning from and engaging with others, team members should have a heart posture of humility and remember that culture does not make people, people make the culture. You are part of the long-term team and are expected to participate in all their team-wide activities, events, fasts, meals, prayer meetings, work meetings, etc. Be ready to be flexible, as activities are often subject to change due to various factors (e.g. last minute invite to someone’s home).    

Other expectations include: 

• In light of our value to hear and obey the Holy Spirit, we expect all team members to spend individual time in the Word and prayer outside of group prayer meetings. This may sound far too obvious, but this can be a hard discipline to carry out, especially when on a village trip. We can’t emphasize enough the need to daily abide in the Lord!

• Come ready and eager to learn, as life and ministry here are most likely different from what you’re accustomed to.

• Be aware of your personal needs to maintain spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically health. If you need something, ask.
