ALL Foursquare Canada Missionaries need a SENDING Church.
Each Missionary applicant must be a member of their local Canadian Foursquare Church and have served in ministry before applying to Canadian Foursquare Missions.
The local church is vital to the success of every missionary worker. You may be the sending vehicle, providing the necessary support, resources, accountability and global networking. But you are their church family. Your missionary worker will need your care, wisdom and lovingkindness during their journey.
As a Foursquare pastor, you can identify and disciple proven leaders in your church with a confirmed call of God to missions. You are in a unique position to evaluate their spiritual health and address issues that arise as they prepare to answer their ministry calling.
Connect with your Missions Mobilizer and reach out to us HERE and discuss becoming a sending pastor. Also, for your potential missionary worker, invite them to APPLY with CFM. Then, encourage and assist them as they work through the REQUIREMENTS for becoming a Missionary deployed with Foursquare Canada. Depending on their assignment (FULL-Time or SHORT-Term) the deployment process takes some time as they will be required to take our training and be approved by our National Board. Usually 1 year minimum plus time to fundraise before deploying.
They will need encouragement all along this journey.
It may be a long road from application to deployment, as training workers is a task we take seriously to ensure their health and success. We know you care about them, too. Keep partnering as they prepare, and further activate your church toward missions.
