Teaching nationals can expand your impact. Our session will explore avenues to produce success in missions, both at home and abroad. We will speak on dentistry producing explosive church planting in Sierra Leone, the process of training nationals on a short term trip including the effects it has on the dentist/trainer, and how dentistry has equipped nationals in Nigeria for long-term service. We will also hear about the initial presentation of our medical module in Haiti and Sudan.

Forming & Preparing a Team for Long-term Healthcare Missions

What’s your ultimate long-term goal? Is your dream to vaccinate multiple thousands of Berber children against preventable child-hood diseases or … to launch movements of missional-communities (churches) among the Berber who will reach all the Berber for Christ … and vaccinate all their children too? Is your goal to treat five thousand TB patients among the Bedo of Jordan or … to establish reproducing Jesus-Communities in the desert that actually bring the Kingdom’s blessing to all Bedouins … and who themselves become the hands of Jesus serving TB patients among them? Is your ambition to establish and/or staff emergency clinics for the never-ending flow of refugees, or … is your life ambition to launch out-of-control movements of simple churches that sweep through a people group … and serve their sick as part of being the church. This breakout session will give you hope that the bigger vision is possible and help you form and prepare long-term teams that can embrace such a challenge.
