Missionaries and their families are heroes as they serve among hard to reach people who are often apathetic and at times hostile to the missionary's message. These frontline harvest field workers need to know that they have brothers and sisters in local churches who are championing for them. Being a champion of these missionaries means that you are fighting on their behalf. As a champion, you will fight to ensure that your missionary is prayed for daily, you will reach out and contact the missionary weekly to learn about their needs, you will join others to pray for the missionary every month, and you will be a constant advocate and encourager in their lives.
