Christians in Action is an international, interdenominational, and trans-cultural evangelical missionary society with ministry in 21 countries over 5 continents. Its 300 ministry personnel have the goal of planting indigenous national churches by evangelism and discipleship. OUR VALUES Prayer - Jesus advised his disciples that the harvest was plentiful but that the laborers were few. He, therefore, instructed them to ask the Lord of the Harvest to send forth laborers into the harvest - Join with us as we daily pray for the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers into His global harvest. Evangelism - Evangelism is the Heartbeat of Missions - Jesus' final commandment was The Great Commission. Outreach & Relief - CinA specializes in person-to-person witnessing, yet remains flexible concerning the use of specific outreach methods - By providing community support to impoverished people, we can open the door to effective evangelism & church planting. Church Planting - The aim of our missionary outreach is to establish self-running, interdependent churches under national leadership - When churches are established, they provide a base for new believers to grow in Christ, find their own place of service, & then carry on the mission of evangelism. Missionary Training - CinA offers a specialized training program designed to equip someone for effective missionary service - CinA offers a Missionary Candidate course for those who have already received training or ministry experience elsewhere - CinA encourages further education & training to enhance a missionary's ministry skills. Preparing Nationals for Leadership - We emphasize the training of national leaders through personal discipling & using local existing training institutions.
