INTERNATIONAL STUDY ON
MISSIONARY RETENTION
The WEA Missions Commission has launched a new research project entitled
ReMAP II: An International Study on Missionary Retention. Coordinators
from
twenty participating sending countries representing some 3,000 agencies
and
more than 150,000 missionaries, met in London October 6-11, 2002 to
finalise
the survey research instrument and receive orientation on administrative
procedures. Seminars were developed that will be used both to introduce
and
debrief the study to mission agencies in their respective countries.
ReMAP II is
a follow-up to the Missions Commission 1994-1997 ReMAP study on
missionary attrition that led to the publication of "Too Valuable
to Lose:
Examining the Causes and Cures of Missionary Attrition" (William
Taylor, Ed.,
1997, Wm. Carey Library, Pasadena). For more information on the project,
send a message to: jlewis@worldevangelical.org. If you would like a
