On\u202fOctober 29\u202fin Kenya, IMB missionaries serving in Sub-Saharan Africa and\u202fthe\u202fAsian\u202fPacific Rim signed a memorandum of understanding solidifying the sending of missionaries from Asia to serve in\u202fSub-Saharan\u202fAfrica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daren Davis,\u202fthe IMB leader for missionaries serving in Africa, said the signing of the\u202fmemorandum\u202fis a\u202fhistoric\u202fstep toward seeing Asians engage\u202fthose in need of the gospel in\u202fAfrica.\u202fDavis [also] acknowledged the decades of missions\u2019\u202finvestment in Asian countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe stand here today on the shoulders of those who went before us, people who labored in places where the name of Jesus was not known, and now, from those very places, rise up believers who are going to the nations for the sake of the gospel,\u201d Davis said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jeff\u202fSingerman, who serves in Africa,\u202fsaid the brutal fact is that there are multitudes of unreached people on the African continent. He sees the signing of the memorandum\u202fas an answer to prayer. It is a\u202fbuilding block to understanding that Christians from other nations can join the task of seeing African churches sending African missionaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Singerman\u202fsaid they will host multicultural training to enable missionaries from Asia to be fruitful and successful in the mission and in the calling that God has given them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis collaboration might be the greatest contribution the IMB can make in this generation of missionaries. In other words, facilitating connections with those [with] whom we work, so that they can understand their fulfilling and calling to the missionary task,\u201d\u202fSingerman\u202fsaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
