Originally created as a series for Faith TV, this program compiles 24 segments featuring missionary and humanitarian relief projects taking place around the world. From drilling wells in Africa for clean drinking water, to designing a dentist's office that can be carried in a single backpack into the depths of South American jungles, to working with Brazil's burgeoning population of homeless children, viewers witness how a little sacrifice and effort from ordinary people can make a huge difference in the lives of a needy community. Hosts Steve Saint and Dianne Becker travel on location to talk to those who “work in the trenches” as well as locals who are learning to help their own neighbors. In addition, the program includes a chapter on how individuals can become involved, whether for a couple of weeks or a couple of years. While the people profiled here are mostly adults, Mission would be a good title for all ages of various faiths who might be interested in helping out in the global community. Recommended.
