Pre-field Training for International Marketplace Workers

The work of the sending church does not end at the Commissioning ceremony of a Sent One. It really is just the beginning. This specialized cohort will focus doing both proactive and reactive missionary care so that those who are Sent Ones stay connected to their local church and are shepherded well.

This cohort is for new and even seasoned mission pastors to be further developed in the head, heart, and hands of their unique and crucial role to help the church live on mission.

More churches than ever before are embracing their role in sending missionaries. This requires not only conviction, but thoughtful application—and the bedrock of that application is assessment and development. Get trained to do it in this online cohort.
