Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia is opening up to Christian mission, and The United Methodist Church is there on the ground floor. The area, which includes Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand, is one of more than a dozen "mission initiatives" of Global Ministries. All of the mission initiatives of Global Ministries involve global networks of mutual support and fellowship. These networks are comprised of individuals, congregations, districts, annual conferences, and church-related institutions.
The West Ohio Conference partners with congregations and missionaries in Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam to support training for pastors and laity, local church support, pastoral salary support, and vocational training. For more information on how you can support the SE Asia initiative, read about West Ohio's Partnership Priorities.
