The Mission does all the things necessary to stay in operation like any organization.  

Because workers spend much time away on the mission vessel and on other outreach endeavors, there are often few available to attend to the needs of the base, shop, and office.

Hands are applied to gardening, canning, freezing, and food preparations, building maintenance and renovation projects.  

Workers largely maintain vehicles and other mission equipment. 

Hundreds of cards and letters are written throughout the year.  

Time is taken for visitors at the base.  Workers also go and visit ones in hospitals and at nursing homes and take speaking and other engagements.

Workers take a vacation break during the year and time off over the Christmas holidays.
