330: Holding the Rope: The Vital Role of Missionary Advocates

In episode 330 of Missions Incorporated, host Jesse Schreck, a full-time missionary in Italy since 2007, explores the critical role of missionary advocates. Based on a blog post from Practical Missions Cohort, this episode highlights how churches and individuals back home can "hold the rope" by supporting missionaries through prayer, communication, and tangible help. Jesse discusses the challenges of limited resources and isolation faced by missionaries in Italy, where biblical churches are scarce, and shares practical ways to advocate effectively. The episode also includes updates on a mission facility fundraiser, a call for volunteers, and a heartfelt reflection on the recent passing of Jesse’s father-in-law. Tune in to learn how you can make a lasting impact on the Great Commission without leaving home.
