    <title>Will you be part of this opportunity?!</title>

&lt;h4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vision&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Churches of Christ have been working aggressively to plant churches in European countries since the end of WWII. In those 70 or so years, there has been a beachhead established in numerous countries. Those churches represent an important resource for the expansion of the gospel in Europe and beyond.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The recent legal changes in Russia have made many of us wonder what this will mean for those trying to share the good news of Christ in that country.&amp;nbsp; Below is the perspective from a long-term missionary in Russia that may help us understand this issue better.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Selecting Your Mission Field</title>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Introduction:&lt;/strong&gt; Historically, churches of Christ have had little &amp;ldquo;rhyme or reason&amp;rdquo; behind their choice of a mission field and even of a missionary. Factors that have impacted our choice of a mission field or of a mission family may include previous experience in a particular location because of tourism, work, military service or short-term mission experience.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
