THE
WORLD.
BUT YOU WILL RECEIVE POWER
WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAS COME UPON YOU,
AND YOU WILL BE
MY WITNESSES IN JERUSALEM
AND IN ALL JUDEA AND SAMARIA,
AND TO THE END OF THE EARTH
In Acts 1:8,
Jesus commissions His disciples to be His witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
What does that mean for you today?
HOW WILL YOU GO?
TAKE A SHORT TERM TRIP
Visit missionaries and learn about their daily life.
BUILD A PRAYER TEAM
Who can pray for you as you discern where God is leading you?
LEARN ABOUT UNREACHED PEOPLE GROUPS
Use a resource like Joshua Project to begin praying for unreached people groups around the world. Let this inform how you prioritize different opportunities. Do your skills or interests line up with a specific people group or area of the world?
RESEARCH SENDING ORGANIZATIONS
Explore different opportunities, funding structures, requirements and ministry philosophies.
APPLY
Apply to your chosen organization’s opportunity. Some require you to apply before being assigned to a specific ministry assignment, while others allow you to apply to a specific opportunity.
PREPARE TO GO
Pray for the people group you will be going to and the work you will do. Build rhythms of continuing spiritual disciplines, updating your prayer team and learning about your future home.
PUT DOWN ROOTS
While your assignment may only be a few years, use this time to practice putting down roots in a new culture and discern what may be next for you.
