Last Thursday (February 20th), our missionary interns held their first online training, discussing the topic of missiology. They were joined by Charles Jones, International Ministries’ Area Director for Europe, the Middle East, and Liberia. Charles challenged them to consider that long before they ever step foot in a particular country, God has already been present in that country and that the proper approach is to join God in what He is already doing.
As a follow up to the conversation, each of the interns were given the assignment of reading, The Lifelong Missionary, by Matthew Dohyer. They will gather again for another conversation next Thursday (Match 5th) to discuss insights from their reading.
Please pray for each of our interns as they prepare to serve God overseas this summer. Many of them are having conversations with missionaries this week to finalize ministry placements. This year’s interns include:
- Becca Martin, Marshall University
- Kali Wilkinson, Marshall University
- Beth Perry, Marshall University
- Bree Fleming, West Virginia University
- Shyra Freeman, Fairmont State University
- Emily Fordyce, Palmer Theological Seminary
