Serving Refugees as Outward Facing Christians (Audio)
In the coming months, we'll be releasing the audio from MTW West Coast's Fall 2018 Equip missions training which focused on serving refugees. These will be posted on our blog and distributed through MTW Online, our bi-weekly email newsletter. A new seminar will be posted every two weeks. We think you'll find these seminars informative, encouraging, and challenging.
Over 60 million in our world are displaced, in trauma, and looking for a safe place. What an amazing opportunity for the Church to share the good news that the only true safe place is in Jesus.
Listen as MTW West Coast Hub Director Mike Pettengill introduces the fall 2018 Equip missions training, and outlines the need for being outward facing Christians who wish to glorify God here and around the world by responding to the needs of refugees and immigrants.
This seminar was recorded live at the 2018 Equip missions training in Tucson, Arizona. Equip is a quarterly training event sponsored by MTW West Coast designed to deepen your understanding of missions and help you see how God's global plan intersects with your life. Additional seminars are available on Soundcloud.
