Vision Missions Event
Missions Mobilization, Mississippi Baptist Convention Board, is
now offering an exciting day to renew passion for the people of
the world.
The Worldview Missions Event schedule is as follows:
- a.m. – Sunday School – Guest International Mission
Board personnel shares with students and adults. The content should
set the stage for later sessions on lostness and ways a local
congregation can make a difference.
- a.m. – Worship – Ken Rhodes, Director of Missions
Mobilization, shares a message about developing a Biblical worldview
with a people group focus. Areas addressed are increasing cultural
awareness, reviewing a people group case study, developing an
adequate Biblical framework, and becoming intentional in missions.
1. Session 1 – 45 minutes – presentation by an International
Mission Board Global Research Department on lostness and the status
of world evangelization.
2. Session 2 – 45 minutes – presentation by an International
Mission Board representative sharing opportunities of ways a local
church can engage a people group or form a strategic partnership
with a company worker.
3. Session 3 – 10-20 minutes – questions and answers
The day concludes with a time of emphasis on prayer.
Two of these events have been held in Mississippi churches and
others are being scheduled. By a October 5, 2008, scheduled event,
there will be a Children’s Mission Rally planned to be conducted
simultaneously with the evening session with students and adults.
A few months ago, Quitman First Baptist Church hosted the first
of these events. The result was a tremendous increase in Lottie
Moon giving. In addition, the pastor and student minister traveled
to the Pac Rim where a strategic connection is being formed. |
