Mission: 18th and 21st Century

At the start of the 21st Century, for CMS-NSW to send 1 missionary family requires:
  • 7 link churches
  • 100 members
  • 90 supporters
  • $70,000 Field Costs
  • 65 Summer School attendees
During the 1700's the Moravian Church sent 35 missionaries per 100 church members.

Yeah, but those Moravians only got a one way bus ticket and were simply expected to witness at work.

Mission today is expensive, and it takes a long time to get off the ground.
