BCMN Missionary Endorsement
A missionary earns BCMN endorsement by completing a Strategic Report. BCMN Missions works with the sending pastor and missionary to complete a Strategic Report that is given by the missionary to supporting and potential supporting churches. It includes the missionary’s salvation experience, call to ministry, doctrinal statement, ministry plan, and agreement with BCMN’s statement of faith and philosophy. The Strategic Report is completed each year and signed by the missionary and sending pastor.
Church Planting Missionaries
A church planting missionary is a missionary whose primary goal is to plant churches. He may establish and maintain other ministries such as schools, colleges, feeding centers, clinics, sports ministries and orphanages, but these all flow out from his church planting endeavors. A church planting missionary may not be divorced and remarried.
Support Missionaries
A support missionary is a missionary who is in a support role to a church planting missionary. They may be a part of a church planter’s ministry working in ministries such as the Sunday Schools, Ladies’ ministry, school, college, feeding center, clinic, sports ministry or orphanage. A support missionary may also be someone who coaches and trains missionaries.
