Member Care

23 January 2024

By Naomi Hettithanthiri

Purpose

The Global Member Care Network (GMCN) exists to resource, equip and connect internationally all Christian practitioners of member care at any level.
It is a professional community in which mutual learning, training and sharing can take place.

Vision

We, the GMCN, would like to see a healthy, spiritual, relational, resourced, vigorous, global mission community serving God effectively, connected vitally to both the sending and receiving church, reflecting Christ accurately in life and task.

Definition

Member Care is the ongoing preparation, equipping and empowering of Missionaries for effective and sustainable life, ministry and work.
