This event is scheduled to take place from November 19th to 21st, 2024, at the First Baptist Church, Port Harcourt Crescent, Garki 2, Abuja, FCT Nigeria.
Designed for missionaries serving in and outside Nigerian mission fields, it is expected to provide participants with an opportunity to further prepare for the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Field Missionary Retreat is a significant event that holds once every five years. It serves as a unique gathering where Nigeria’s missionaries come together to retreat, reflect, and equip themselves for the challenges ahead in their missionary work.
During the retreat, attendees will engage in various activities aimed at enhancing their readiness and effectiveness in spreading the gospel.
These activities include workshops, training sessions, and spiritual rejuvenation exercises, all tailored to address the specific aspects of the great commission.
NEMA emphasises the importance of this retreat in strengthening the missionary community and fostering a sense of unity and purpose among participants.
By coming together, missionaries can share experiences, learn from each other, and gain new insights to support their mission endeavors.
The event also provides a platform for networking and collaboration, allowing missionaries to establish connections that can lead to future partnerships and cooperative efforts in their mission fields. This collaborative spirit is crucial for overcoming the many challenges faced in spreading the Christian faith.
The Field Missionary Retreat organised by NEMA is a pivotal event for Nigeria’s missionaries. It offers a time for spiritual renewal, professional development, and community building, all of which are essential for the ongoing success of their mission work.
