Overview: What is Operation Inasmuch

It is a focused, one-day event. ″It's almost like a mission's bullet. In our society . . . it's hard for people to fit into their busy schedule a long-term commitment for a lot of different things.″

It is local. One participant said: ″We should do the faraway things, but you don't feel and know firsthand those faraway things. It makes me feel good to do an Operation Inasmuch.″

It is hands-on. People want to know they are making a difference. For all our participation in checkbook missions, many prefer to get personally involved.

The methodology is already in place. Congregational leaders do not want to plow new ground when it is not necessary. Operation Inasmuch has honed its process and methods over seven years of practice.

The cost is affordable. Costs are often shared with other non-profit organizations or churches or, in some cases, with government agencies.

It offers something for everyone. One lay leader responds to the question of why Operation Inasmuch worked well in her church: ″Mainly because it has gotten people involved. They are able to use their gifts in areas they have not been able to use before.″
