So we are back at ASM for our second term. This semester we start focusing on the being equipped to reach the nations. We start with "the Nations Course" facilitated by World Outreach.





The Nations course has been developed to equip new missionaries with tools to ensure their first term is successful and fruitful however, the course is also valuable for missionaries already on the field.

Nations is largely based on the World Harvest Institute course material which has a proven record of effectively equipping cross-cultural workers to quickly reach maximum effectiveness. Without pre-field training, it can take seven years to reach maximum effectiveness but research has shown that with pre-field training, this time can be reduced to only three years.

This course is run by World Outreach International, but it is not exclusive to workers within the organisation. Nations is taught by experienced World Outreach International missionaries as well as guest lecturers with a proven track record of effectiveness in the field.

It is a six-week, full-time course, with five hours of lectures and four-five hours of reading and assignments per day. The comprehensive, intense structure of the course maximises value in the shortest possible time, while maintaining a focus for effective long-term mission service.

We are very exited by this course and are joined by more than 8 different nationalities of on field missionaries. Our lecturers are all full time missionaries who all have had to learn at least one new language and preach the gospel in it. We are making friends and connections and learning a lot.

Herewith a link to a short video of the course.

Please pray for grace and wisdom as we are swamped by work.

See you on the other side.....
