Author: Reapsome, J.        
Title: Readers cite rushed visits and lack of pastoral care.
Evangelical Missions Quarterly,
 
Editor:  
Pub. Data: 21, 128-131.    1985
Pub. Type: Article      4 pages
Summary: A report of a survey made to see which of Smith's (1985) criticisms other missionaries felt were relevant to them. Rushed visits by home executives and lack of pastoral care were at the top of the list, closely followed by ineffective recruitment and screening. Criticism for not "going native" home executives being out of tune with the basic purpose of missions and too much work piled on by the home office were at the bottom.
Gems: Too often the field is faced with the task of creating a position in order to provide a ministry for an individual.
Outline: No real outline since it is just data gathered in response to the article by Smith (1985)
