Re-Entry. Peter Jordan"Having counseled with hundreds of returning missionaries, Peter & Donna know from experience the re-entry challenges and opportunities that await missionaries worldwide. they have much to say on this vital subject of re-entry...and the authority to say it." Loren Cunningham, Founder & President, YWAM

​The Reentry Team.  Neal Pirolo is the director of Emmaus Rd Int. Having sensed that reentry support was the most neglected, yet greatly needed, he has given us this throughtful study on how to care for returning missionaries. It is his heart's desire to see our missionaries better cared for.
Those who serve in short term missions often have their worldviews rocked.  While they may not have the depth of reentry challenge that longer term missionaries go through, they often return home facing major changes and decisions.  MTW Member Care and Development has copies of this book which it can distribute electronically for free.  However, the author has requested that it not be posted on the internet.  Therefore, if you would like a copy, please contact us and request one.

"Returning Well is a welcome and needed practical tool for those whose souls have had the experience of living in another culture. This resource has been desired by sending agencies and debriefers for decades."
