Reaching International Students in your Home, Church and School
By Tom Phillips and Bob Norsworthy
Bethany House Publisher, 1997, 230pp
Each year numerous international students enrol in our Universities
and colleges. These students represent the coming generation of world
leaders yet few are welcomed into our homes and even fewer ever see
the inside of a church. God has brought a key component of the mission
field to our doorstep. This book by Phillips and Norsworthy provides
an invitation to join one of the most productive and strategic
ministries available to the church. It makes ministry to international
students understandable and attainable.

Learn About The Ethnic Group Next Door
How many churches adopting people
groups think they have to travel half way around the world to make contact
with
them? The truth is that God is moving representatives from almost every
nation
and tongue to our doorsteps! A new website seeks to equip and inspire
American
churches to reach out to their ethnic neighbors, sharing the hope that makes
an
eternal difference, then learn about the mission field through them.
http://www.ethnicharvest.org has over 150 pages of content, with demographics
and links to many mission sites. Ethnic Harvest began with a vision to serve
the more than 100 language groups living in the Seattle area. They hope
through
the website to share this vision with churches nationwide. For more
information, write Barbara <info@ethnicharvest.org>.
Reaching Out To Internationals

In a recent issue of the Mission Mobilisers newsletter (September 5,
2000), Nate Wilson set out ten reasons why churches should be involved
in reaching out to internationals. Somewhere in between "goers" and
"senders" says Nate is a significant group called "welcomers" who reach
out to nationals as they come to our home countries. The ten points come
courtesy of Randy Anderson who is involved in international ministry in
South Carolina. If you'd like a copy of this Mission Mobiliser newsletter,
