“3C” Conference – 2023
For the first time EVER, World Team is planning to bring all of its missionaries, field leadership, and sending center workers together for a joint conference. The 3 “C’s” of the conference stand for:
COMMUNITY
As missionaries we believe that people can best encounter God in their own language and culture. We abandon our own language and culture, learning to love people very different from us. But sometimes we need to step out of that and be around those who deeply understand us. For the first time, the 3C Conference will allow all World Team workers to experience community together. At 3C, we’ll get to join together, share stories, laugh and cry, pray for and encourage one another. We’ll experience community like never before.
COLLABORATION
Did you know that World Team missionaries are Bible translators, nurses, doctors, agriculture specialists, and more? Are you aware of the many ways we approach church planting? Do you see needs in your communities that are not being filled? The 3C Conference will be a time to learn all that World Team is doing, and to collaborate in those efforts. We live in an age of unprecedented communication. Collaboration has never been easier. Let us join efforts now so we can work better together in the future.
CELEBRATION
John Piper said, “Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more.” The 3C Conference will celebrate the ultimate. All our efforts worldwide have the end goal of the worship of God. Unlike most other professions, we already know that our mission will succeed. One day, people from every tribe, tongue, and nation will worship God. As we gather, we will intentionally praise the Lord for who he is, for what he has made of us, and for all he is doing through our ministries.
Your donation will be used to help cover the travel costs to/from the conference in Asia for all our full-time missionaries and staff. We want to reduce the individual and additional ministry costs to our workers so they all can attend! The project code is 04544.
