Endorsements
“Pursuing the Call provides advice that is clear, concise, and can be practically implemented. Danny provides uniques insights and practical advice gleaned from challenges that are still fresh. A must-read for anyone seriously considering serving overseas."
Michael Peterson
Co-Founder/Director, MissionSake
“If you sense God has called you to take the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to another culture, I highly recommend you purchase and read Danny Lamastra’s Pursuing the Call. He draws from his experience as a missionary to El Salvador to provide easy to understand and essential to follow principles to get to the mission field, overcome common challenges, and stay healthy for a lifetime of effective service.”
Alan Ehler
Dean, Southeastern University’s Barnett College of Ministry and Theology
“Unfair! That's what I felt after reading Danny's book. It was unfair that I did not have such a book when my wife and I embarked on our missionary journey. We would have avoided many mistakes, been much more prepared, or learned things much quicker. This book will be a blessing to countless numbers, and help smooth their transition to wherever the Lord may be leading them."
Dave Flynn
Latin America Team Leader, Center for Mission Mobilization
Having been a missionary in Kolkata since 1954, facing countless challenges including the sudden death of my husband Mark Buntain in 1989, I know missionary Daniel Lamastra’s book Pursuing the Call will be a wonderful guide for new missionaries going to foreign countries.
Huldah Buntain
Co-Founder, Assemblies of God Mission
