Yes! MCN is passionate about good missionary training. New mission partners come together for a week-long training in areas such as fundraising, culture shock, and missiology to prepare them for their first year abroad. Each summer we hold the Concordia Mission Institute (CMI) along with Lutheran Bible Translators, a week-long conference “by missionaries, for missionaries.” CMI is organized around a focus on four key Mission Perspectives. They are: Missio Dei (Mission of God), Relationship, Vocation, and Engagement. This yearly gathering is an important time for the MCN team to gather for ongoing training and relationship building.
