About

This community is for Christians to discuss the work of Christian missions. This community is not designed to stir up controversy or division. Instead, it aims to create an environment where confessional Christians can encourage one another by sharing information and news about work around the world as well as history of missions.

Community Guidelines

Speak positively and with grace. The community is not to tear down others or the work of Christian missions. If you want a channel to debate, critique, or argue, then create your own.
This is a pro-missions channel. While this is an open community, its content should be in favor of the work of Christian missions. If you would like to speak against it, you are free to establish your own channel.
The purpose is encouragement and update, not critique. There are many methods used in Christian missions, and good conversation about effectiveness and healthy strategy ought to be held. However, this channel is for positive developments for the purpose of prayer and encouragement.
No vulgar, offensive, or off-topic posts. Avoid profanity, adult content, or anything that strays from the stated topic.
Respect privacy: Do not share personal photos or information without consent of those individuals.
No clickbait, personal requests, meetups, trading, selling, or begging
