Self Evaluation for a Short-term Trip

Is God calling me to this area of ministry?
Pray about it.

Do I have a servant’s heart?
Am I willing to ask “How can I help?” instead of “Let me show you how”.

Am I willing to be a team player?
Can I work with others towards a common goal?  Can I accept authority?

Am I flexible?
How do I handle it when things don’t go as planned?  Can I adapt and learn to “go with the flow?”

Am I willing to embrace another culture?
Can I adjust my behavior and dress accordingly?

Can I accept being a guest in another culture?

Can I adapt to more primitive conditions?

Will I be able to survive on a diet that may be very different from what I am accustomed to?
Where you lead me I will follow; what you feed me I will swallow.

How will I handle the financial commitment?
Will I need to find sponsors?  Do I want to be part of the fund raisers?

Can I afford to take time away from my family and/or my job?
