Is God calling me to be a missionary?

If you are being probed with this question, and find yourself stuck between discerning God's will and a 'one way ticket to Tarshish', WEC's Mission & Me weekend is an opportunity not to be missed.

Why mission?

The purpose of the weekend is to help people who have expressed an interest in, or feel they have been called to, overseas mission.

It aims to answer all those frequently asked questions such as:

• Is God really calling me to overseas mission?
• What can I do with my gifts, skills and training?
• What sort of people are mission agencies looking for?
• What sort of training do I need to preach the gospel overseas? 
• What does WEC international do about finance?

Why me?

Mission and Me is a great chance to talk to others in the same boat! The course will be full of like-minded people with whom concerns can be shared and prayed through. Also on hand are experienced missionaries who will be more than happy to have informal chats, answer questions and offer guidance.

Foreign culture calls!

At some point in the weekend guests will be given the chance to participate in a cultural evening.

In a lighthearted way these evenings offer a taste of life abroad, and also touch on the challenges of living in a vastly different culture.

No pressure

Don't feel that coming on this weekend means you have to dust your sackcloth down just yet! This isn't God's 21st Century answer to man-eating whales. There is no contract to sign.

Mission & Me organisers are anxious to make their guests feel at ease and assure them. No one is going to be coerced into signing papers that will curtail their activities for the next 40 years :)
