Why does it seem like singleness is the gift that no one wants? In this week's episode of The Missions Podcast, Alex and Scott sit done with ABWE missionary Mandi Vermilyea to talk about singleness on the mission field. They discuss advantages and disadvantages of being single in ministry, false and hurtful assumptions about singleness, and how churches can best support single women missionaries.

Mandi Vermilyea is a missionary with ABWE's EveryEthne ministry, ministering in North America. She launched the Flourish ministry two years ago to encourage and support single women who are serving the Lord all over the world. Learn more about Flourish in this video, support her house project, or support Mandi as she ministers to women.
