[quote=Anonymous]Conservative Protestant Christian here. What I've been told by missionaries I know is that these one week groups coming in and out aren't that helpful. They end up spending all summer hosting these groups and use up a ton of their time teaching them how to do these "projects" and it's just not efficient. The money it took to send the group would be more useful. Mission trips where the group is actually there to serve the missionaries are more helpful. For example, coming to complete administrative tasks, provide childcare for missionary kids so the parents can attend a conference or whatever... But there's nothing unethical about mission trips in general. [/quote]
