2020 Highlights

COVID-19 RESPONSE

Due to the global pandemic, most of our ministries had to pivot to respond in a relevant way. Food relief packages were handed out to hundreds of families. Our field workers found many unreached people groups that were previously resistant to the Gospel being open to hearing the message of Jesus for the first time because of these relief efforts.

TRANSITION TO ONLINE EVENTS

Our global and regional events were moved online due to travel restrictions. These include: Regional Vision Team meetings, Field Coordination Team meetings, Leadership Program sessions and Field Leader trainings. Online quarterly Town Hall gatherings and global prayer meetings were also introduced to foster greater connection among field workers.

WORLD OUTREACH PODCASTS

The World Outreach Podcast was launched. Each episode is a dynamic conversation to advance the cause of missions amongst UPGs everywhere. . We invite you check these podcasts out at: www.world-outreach.com/podcast

LEADERSHIP PROGRAM

In 2019 we launched the Leadership Program to develop WO leaders to serve in the organisation. In 2020, we graduated our first cohort of leaders, and started with training our second cohort.

SE ASIA FIELD OFFICE

A new SE Asia Field Office was established to service our field personnel more effectively and efficiently.
