“We worship Christ in heart, word and action"
About this issue ...
Looking Forward
SIM leaders met in early 2014 to
consider the Mission’s future. Our
reason for being was radically
examined. Like our first pioneers,
today’s multi-ethnic SIM partners
strive to be Christ’s witnesses to the
uttermost parts of the earth, irrespective
of barriers and compelled
by his great love.
In this issue, International Director
Joshua Bogunjoko expands on this
foundational focus. Then we look at
radio evangelism in the Horn of Africa,
even reaching those who have never
met someone who has a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ. We also
feature Kiwi partners whose hearts are
centred on Southern Africa and South
America, and introduce a fresh way of
reaching an urban Asian community,
through art.

in the world.
