PA 2008 - Day 2 (Monday)

Our first day of training was designed to help us learn to seperate the functions of church from the form, so that we would not mistakenly impose American forms on another culture.


There are essential functions of the church. Some of them are:

• Regular gathering of Christian believers


• Worship and pray together


• Bible teaching

Those are a few. Sunday morning church services are a form or way to carry out the function of regularly gathering the believers. In some countries it is not practicle to meet on a Sunday, so the wise missioary will schedule services on a different day.
