1.0 out of 5 stars Maybe too thorough, 17 Dec 2002
By A. Surgenor - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As an example, the first section has 8 pages of normal volunteer work, and 10 pages seeking people to help evangelise in missions. This seems to continue through the rest of the book. There is definately good information in this book, tonnes if you want to help people buy teaching the gospel, a bit too much picking through if you feel this approach is less than helpful. This would have been more useful had it been split into two books. The green volunteer guide is a little out of date but better.
