 During her presentation, Borst will discuss some of the
challenges and opportunities faced by mission workers in Iraq, Iran and Syria/Lebanon.  She is affiliated
with the Outreach Foundation, a global mission agency which grew out of
the Presbyterian Church.  She works with
churches and individuals around the United States
to help them discern God’s call to mission while connecting them to that work
alongside the Global Church in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean,
Asia and the Middle East---a particular area
of specialty for her.  Borst previously
served as director of global ministry at Atlanta’s
Peachtree Presbyterian Church.  Over the
year she has traveled extensively worldwide and has led or participated in over
65 mission trips.
