Missionaries live in a culture that is different than their native culture with the goal of sharing their faith and helping people. They learn the language, adapt to living in a new place, and find ways to build relationships and impact people’s lives. They often raise support from people and churches at home and visit on furlough to share about their work and continue to seek funding. May have training in medicine, education, or other fields that can be used to make an impact.
