WHOLISTIC MISSIONARY TRAINING PROGRAM
Emissaries Mission is equipped to train churches, non-profits, mission teams, and individuals who are called to go abroad for mission work. This is done through a participatory learning style. Emissaries Mission can help missionaries get connected in the region of the world they are looking to serve in.
We do our mission by building relationships with churches and non-profits. We build relationship with non-profits to bring to them the awareness of Christ’s mission and empower churches to set up outreach and mission teams to reach out cross-culturally for discipleship, empowerment and development. Alongside the churches, Emissaries Mission and their partner, Community Health Evangelism will help train these teams and help lead them into wholistic cross-cultural missions. In this way, churches and non-profits are reaching out to the unreached, empowering people and working to bring development to communities. The outreach and mission training workshops are done through several hours of trainings to equip God’s people for Christian missions and send them out into nations for church planting (soul winning) for Christ.
WHOLISTIC SCHOOL DISCIPLESHIP PROGRAM
Our true worth, identity and peace come from knowing Christ and having salvation through Him.
We work to make disciples and to bring wholistic empowerment and development to students and their communities. The spirit of lies, defeat, fear and depression has creeped into the lives of young people today all over the world at a very tender age, and this sometime begins in schools. Christian Discipleship requires collaborative efforts of parents, teachers, churches, non-profits and other mission agencies to help nurture these young people in the way of the Lord. We believe in the sacredness of human life in all stages from conception to natural death. Emissaries Mission works to build relationships with teachers, students, parents, and school districts to get to know the areas that wholistic empowerment and development is needed for struggling students in schools.
While children everywhere need a proper education, schooling looks different in other parts of the world. In most villages in Africa, education is not free for K-12 like it is in the U.S. Poor children often miss out because they cannot afford uniforms, supplies, transportation, tuition fees, and food. Emissaries Mission collaborates with other agencies, churches, and non-profits to help families and communities know and understand the importance of education for both male and female children, giving them relief and community-owned, sustainable development so they can support themselves and their children can thrive academically.
WHOLISTIC COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Leading Churches and non-profits mission teams to the local ground in remote villages where they want to reach out cross-culturally.
Emissaries Mission teaches cross-cultural missionary skills through workshops and programs that integrate Christian discipleship with disease prevention and community-owned development. Emissaries Mission’s wholistic community development program is popularly known as Crossover Mission. This means leading churches and non-profits mission teams to the ground in remote villages where they want to reach out cross-culturally.
This Crossover Mission movement is the mission aspect of this ministry where outreach and missionary trainings and work are done internationally in remote, rural villages. The gospel is for all cultures. Crossover Mission was taken from the Bible in Mark 4:35 where Jesus told his disciples that it is time to cross over to the other side of the lake. The other side of the lake, according to the Jews back then, represented everything that was impure, corrupt and sinful. But Jesus has changed this perspective. Reaching out to the people on the other side means that the barriers between different cultures has now been broken and that we are now free to share the love of Christ (gospel) to anybody. We believed that God has called us as His emissaries (ambassadors) to the world to carry out His mission. That is why we go to the people, live among them, teaching them God’s way of living a life, knowing and understanding their culture, living a sacrificial life, learning from them, loving them, and starting with the little they know about Christ and bringing the wholistic, practical gospel to them that they may find salvation.
CHURCH PLANTING
Emissaries Mission ultimate mission is for soul winning and discipleship making through proclaiming the wholistic Gospel of Jesus Christ practically. This is done by living a life like Jesus did, by meeting the physical and spiritual needs of our neighbors. Churches are being planted using wholistic community development strategies, and for us, church planting means soul winning and discipleship making.
POVERTY ALLEVIATION
Emissaries Mission works to help end poverty through sustainable means. This is done by recognizing when it is necessary to provide relief or community development in a remote community. Our mission is to decrease dependency from outside resources and help the locals develop their own resources that will be sustainable for their own community. Emissaries Mission also provides relief for poor and persecuted communities who are unable to mentally, physically, emotionally, and psychologically do long term community development. Emissaries Mission is equipped by the Holy Spirit to identify when a spiritual need is the priority and when a physical need is the priority. As Jesus always meet the greatest need first and sometimes that was meeting a physical, emotional, or a mental need first. Matthew 25: 35-40.
