 And now it's grown to this …
Today WEC International works in more than 70 countries.
Our primary
objectives are:
-
to bring the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to the remaining unevangelised
peoples with utmost urgency
-
to demonstrate the compassion of Christ to a needy world
-
to plant churches and lead them to spiritual maturity
-
to inspire, mobilise and train for cross-cultural mission.
WEC is a multi-ethnic, multi-national and inter-denominational
family.
We are bound together by shared convictions,
a desire to live a godly lifestyle, and an unwavering commitment to the
Great Commission of Jesus Christ.
Our oneness in Him makes it possible
for us to work together as brothers and sisters. It compels us to accept
each other irrespective of gender, ethnicity, nationality or church affiliation.
It constrains us to care for the wellness of our entire missionary family,
and calls for international co-operation with local and national churches,
and with other Christian agencies.
WEC International certainly
lives up to its name! We are a fellowship of God's people drawn from many
national, ethnic and denominational backgrounds.
Workers from about 50 nationalities are currently working in over 65
countries around the world, and involved in many different tasks. There
are now about
1,840 people actively serving with WEC around the world, and about a
quarter of them are from non-Western countries.
We have 18 centres scattered throughout the world which encourage, screen,
send, and help support workers. Naturally, we also need workers in these
centres, as well as in ministries such as media which are located in sending
countries. About UK WEC Headquarters
