Stage 7:  Missionaries are Sent to Other Unreached People Groups
第七阶段:当地教会差派宣教士送往新的领域

Reproducing churches through moving into missions. 

This is the Seventh Stage and is focused on enabling the multiplication of churches among the target group and beyond. The goal is to work with local believers to establish a church planting movement.  Church leaders now have vision for sending teams into other ethnic groups or other countries for evangelism and church planting.

通过进入宣教来繁殖教会。这是第七阶段,重点是在目标群体和其他群体中实现教会的繁殖。目标是与当地信徒合作,建立一个教会倍增运动。教会领袖现在有了派遣团队到其他民族或其他国家进行传福音和建立教会的异象。

Great Commission Vision is Imparted
传递大使命异象

  1. Vision developed to plant churches beyond local area.  Unreached communities and unreached peoples or tribes are identified, whether in-country or out of country.  This is done through research and perhaps consultancies from people who do this kind of research.

  2. The vision is shared with local churches towards development of a burden.  This is done through sharing the information with church leaders, through conferences, through prayer conferences, literature, and other means.

  3. Vision is made practical through mobilization of churches to identify young people being called by God, recognized through their gifts and service.

  4. Cross-cultural training programs are developed to prepare these young people for cross-cultural ministry.  Ideally this is done both through classroom instruction and on-field experience in cross-cultural settings to enable skills to be learned and personal traits to be developed.  Young people may also have to learn how to develop strategic business platforms that enable them to enter new communities and connect with the local people.

  5. Structures for sending may have to be developed to enable oversight and member-care of the young people they send.

  6. Ideally, missionary teams are sent to the target peoples.  These missionary teams have learned to work together before they are sent to new fields.

  7. Missionary teams are trained not only in starting new churches but in thinking, planning, and moving towards multiplying movements of believers.

  8. Missionaries and new missionary teams report regularily to sending churches.

  9. Sending churches are careful to regularily support, pray for, and back their missionaries and missionary teams.

  4. 设立派他们自己的教会建立者的方法

  5. 新的教会群开始了
