Join us for a dynamic and engaging 2-hour interactive workshop exploring "The Impact of Global Trends on Cross-Cultural Missions."
This session will delve into key global trends—such as technological advancements, geopolitical shifts, migration patterns, and cultural changes—that significantly influence the landscape of global gospel proclamation. Through a balanced mix of insightful presentations, collaborative table discussions, and lively group interactions, participants will examine both the opportunities and challenges these trends present to missionary work.
Together, we will think deeply about strategic adaptations and innovative approaches to position ourselves and our ministries effectively for the future. This workshop is designed to foster a shared learning environment where we can collectively discern how to navigate and lead through an ever-evolving global context.

Learn about this exciting opportunity to meet the needs of communities, build relationships and lasting partnerships, and show the love of Jesus.
