Global Missionaries are long-term United Methodist missionaries who serve outside of their home settings. Immersing themselves in local contexts, Global Missionaries listen deeply and prayerfully discern how best to participate in God’s mission in that time and place. Global Missionaries engage in mission “with,” not mission “for,” recognizing that God is already at work in the people and places they serve.
See how global missionaries are responding to God’s call to mission around the world.
