2022 Round Up, Part 1
Blogs for the Missionary Community
We really appreciated how much interest the global missionary community took in our research in 2022. Lauren, Tanya, and Elizabeth were all featured on blogs aimed at missionaries, missionary kids, and member care staff. Here is a selection of our favourites from 2022.
Writing for Global Trellis, Tanya Crossman explores the connection between parental stress and high ACE scores in their children, and how international communities can provide mutual support that improves outcomes for missionary kids.
This memorable piece by Elizabeth Vahey Smith for Taking Route is full of stories that paint a picture of life in the jungle, while making a strong argument for prioritising comfort (and being comforted) as a nececessity—not a luxury.
Elizabeth Vahey Smith also wrote this poignant piece for Velvet Ashes about bridging the gap between loving parents and children who don’t feel loved, sharing how parents can create emotionally safe space for their children.
MK Advocate Michele Phoenix wrote a great article about trauma in missionary kids, citing our research and why it’s important to have these conversations, to explore what trauma looks like for MKs so we can better care for them.
