A Comprehensive Program Proposal for
Skills Development and Systematic Evaluation of Missionary Workers
--Messages to the Young People p. 192.3-
God desires us to make use of every opportunity for securing a preparation for His work. He expects us to put all our energies into its performance, and to keep our hearts alive to its sacredness and its fearful responsibilities. Many who are qualified to do excellent work accomplish little because they attempt little. Thousands pass through life as if they had no great object for which to live, no high standard to reach. One reason of this is the low estimate which they place upon themselves. Christ paid an infinite price for us, and according to the price paid He desires us to value ourselves. Be not satisfied with reaching a low standard. We are not what we might be, or what it is God's will that we should be. God has given us reasoning powers, not to remain inactive, or to be perverted to earthly and sordid pursuits, but that they may be developed to the utmost, refined, sanctified, ennobled, and used in advancing the interests of His kingdom.”
Scope of Proposal
This program is designed for missionary workers who are actively engaged in missionary work and seek to enhance their skills and effectiveness. This proposal will cover the methods of training for English proficiency, technological literacy, basic computer troubleshooting, and professional etiquette. Additionally, a comprehensive evaluation process will be introduced to monitor progress, assess performance, and identify areas for improvement. This proposal outlines the structure, implementation, and expected outcomes of the training program and evaluation process, ensuring that Bible workers are well-equipped to perform their missionary work independently and effectively.
