For the past few weeks, we have been in Sanford, Florida at the Ethnos360 Home Office for Pre-Field Orientation (PFO).<\/strong> It was a ten-day course that introduced us to membership in the mission. We learned about Ethnos360\u2019s core values, its strategy in world missions, the dynamics of life in ministry, and how to develop a ministry support team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also heard exciting updates about Bible translations, new church plants, and missionaries all around the world. One of the most helpful sessions for us was about Ministry Partnership Development (MPD)<\/strong>. It explained that we are not entering ministry alone, but that we need a team of partners who join us in prayer, communication, and financial support (read more about partnership here:https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/nick-borio\/partnership-prayer-and-praises\/<\/a> ) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the next six months, we plan to be in Pennsylvania building our partnership team.<\/strong> If you\u2019d like to get together with us and hear about our ministry with Ethnos360, and how you can play a role in reaching the unreached, let us know! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal is to arrive at the Missionary Training Center (MTC) by January<\/strong>. Below is our current timeline: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
