An Overview
Do you want an exciting and meaningful boost for your
church?
Join the Mission Service Corps’ “adopt a missionary” program.
Do you want your church or small group to be more involved
in missions?
Join the Mission Service Corps’ “adopt a missionary” program.
Do you want to “get to know” a missionary?
Join the Mission Service Corps’ “adopt a missionary” program.
No, missionaries are not orphans, but adopt is a beautiful word
that helps describe the strong relationship between missionaries
and the churches and friends that pray and encourage them in
ministry. The church at Antioch, in a sense, adopted Paul and
Barnabas as special messengers of the Gospel to Asia and Europe
(Acts 13:1-3).
The North American Mission Board (NAMB) has assigned to specific
ministries many Mission Service Corps (MSC) missionaries with
Montana connections. We encourage every church (Bible study
class, ministry team, mission organization) to adopt a Montana
MSC missionary.
Ways to Help
Your Adopted Missionary
Prayer – this is their number one need! When you pray for
missionaries, you are making room in your heart for God to work,
extending your care beyond your community and experience.
Communicate - a telephone call, letter, or email can
offer much needed encouragement to a discouraged missionary
called by God to the place where they are serving.
Send Something – a birthday or holiday care package let’s
them know you are remembering them on this special day.
Visit – make arrangements to visit their ministry site
and assist them in their work. Plan a mission trip and take a
group from your church.
Invite – missionaries love to tell about their ministry
and how God is working. Let them share with your church, small
group, or mission organization.
Meet a Need – there is always a shortage of needed
resources in ministry. What does your missionary need that you
or your church group could provide?
The Adopting Church or Group Will Enjoy:
- Personal relationship with active
missionary.
- Strengthened commitment to missions.
- Heightened awareness of mission
opportunities.
- Fresh ministry perspective due to outward
focus.
- Group building/bonding through service to
others.
- Opportunity to see God at work and an
invitation to join Him.
Since relationships don’t generally happen overnight and because
it takes time for a church/group to organize and plan a
strategy, a two year adoption period is encouraged. At
the end of the two year commitment, the church/group can extend
the length of the existing “adoption” relationship or request
another missionary for adoption.
