Operation Mobilisation Sends Out 250 Missionaries

ASSIST News Service reports that more than 250 participants were sent into the mission field after Operation Mobilisation's (OM) Global Orientation conference at the end of August. The group represented nations from around the world. Among the 250 at the GO conference were 35 Christians from the UK, heading to join OM's outreach teams in locations as diverse as East Europe, Central Asia and the Near East. The group also included a family preparing to serve in France. Several of those from the UK had heard about OM through the recent visit of Logos Hope to ports in Britain and Northern Ireland and after the conference were flying out to the Caribbean to join the ship. Founded by George Verwerover 50 years ago, presently there are 5,400 OM workers serving in 110 countries and on board two ocean-going vessels.
