Member
Care Southern Africa
is a missions support organisation, involved in the care of
missionaries. Missionaries are strategic in reaching the less reached –
but their effectiveness is often hindered by insufficient member
care. Many missionaries have to leave the field
prematurely and permanently, because they are not cared for effectively.
Member
Care can be defined as the continuous investment of resources in the
lives of missionaries. The objective is to nurture and
develop
the missionary as a person over the course of his/her life cycle, from
preparation through to re-entry and retirement. Effective member care
will enhance the effectiveness of missionaries in their task to reach
those who have not heard the Good News yet.
