The Missions Table
Pull up a chair and take a seat! You’re invited to The Missions Table, an open and casual forum where different voices share their experiences in missions and ministry. Whether you feel a call to ministry, share a burden for missions, or just want to know more about what happens on the foreign mission field, there’s something for you at The Missions Table. Impacting and enlightening lessons in ministry often occur in informal settings—outside the classroom or after the church service has ended—as devoted men and women of God share their life and ministry experiences. These special moments gathered around a kitchen or restaurant table can forever change and shape us, and our ministries. The Missions Table provides a venue for these experiences to be shared with a wide audience and an opportunity to learn from those who have gone before.
