How Can I Get Involved?

Because God is actively pursuing the worship of the nations, we need to ask ourselves "How can I be involved with what He's doing in the world?"

Here are some very practical ways to begin in your life today.

PRAY

• Pray for our long term missionaries and the countries that they are invested in.
• Pray for places around the world that currently have no witness for Christ

Where are these places?

• http://1040window.org
• http://www.joshuaproject.net
• http://www.persecution.com

• Pray for the short-term teams being sent out from The Village
• Pray for God to raise up more people out of The Village to commit to global missions
  • One of the few things Jesus ever tells us to pray for is more laborers!
  • Matthew 9:37-38 "The harvest if plentiful, but the workers are few, Ask the Lord of the Harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field."
• Ask God what other role he has for you in spreading His name throughout the world
• How do I begin to pray for the world?
  • Pray through the news. These are front page prayer requests!
  • www.bbc.co.uk/?ok
  • www.foxnews.com/world/index.html
  • www.cnn.com/WORLD
  • Operation World, a great prayer resource,
  • www.gmi.org/ow
  • Global Prayer Digest

GO

• Go on a short term expedition through The Village.
• Begin application process for short term trip.
• Interested in Long-term missions work? We want to help you get there.
• Burdened for somewhere we are not currently involved? Let us know where.

SEND/SUPPORT

• Support one of our long-term missionaries financially.
• Have your home group adopt a missionary.
• Find out more about the needs of international projects we are currently involved in email Jamie Hipp
• Make the difference in the life of a child by sponsoring a Compassion Child.

WELCOME

• There are over 650,000 International Students here in the U.S. from 188 countries! What a perfect way to extend God's grace and love to the world!
  • 80 percent of all Internationals will never set foot into and American home. How can I be a part of changing this?
• International Student Fellowship
  • World leaders & the schools where they studied
  • Places Internationals are from

MOBILIZE

• What is a mobilizer? A believer in God who understands God's unfulfilled global purpose and shares this with others, stirring and rousing them to action with resources, information, and encouragement.
• The mobilizer is a key player in raising up laborers. It takes a burning heart for the world, and yet a willingness to stay.
• Why? Our God has a global size vision and passion, and we can pass this vision on to others

Habakkuk 2:2 "Write down the vision and make it plain on tablets so that the one who reads it may run!"

How do I find my role in World Evangelization?
