CONFERENCE: Missionaries: aliens, providers, or fellow travellers?

Strapline: Could the majority world be suffering from patronage by 'rich' missionaries – and if so, what could be done about that?

Paragraph: Outside Christian workers who build on foreign presuppositions in work amongst indigenous communities can, especially when foreign funded and using outside languages, unwittingly be damaging to indigenous sensibilities. This conference seeks to promote the idea that true empowerment of local people requires getting alongside them. This necessitates vulnerability to their position and context. Such vulnerability can best be achieved if one shares the Gospel using indigenous languages utilising local resources.
