Part 5: Getting Acquainted with Mission Context

Once your Mission Group has begun to implement some initial projects, the next major task is to begin to study the culture and needs of the people you are attempting to minister with. This is not something that can be taken care of in one meeting or a short period of time. Getting acquainted with the people that you are trying to reach is simply the first step. The task of learning about their culture, values and needs is a task that will continue throughout the life of your mission.
