Why did EFM choose this Five Year Goal?

Where are we going as we explore where we carry out the Five Year Goal?

The Luke 10 Initiative is how EFM will determine where the five new fields will be started for our Five-Year Goal! If you or someone you know might be seriously interested in exploring the idea of missionary service, whether that be for a couple of years or for a long-term career, EFM is calling you a “future missionary” and designing opportunities for you- you can learn about them here!

The Seven Fields that EFM has Committed to Launching so Far!

Mexico

Led by: EFC- MAYM | Partner: Mexico Yearly Meeting

Mexico Yearly Meeting (MYM) has a vision to plant Friends churches in every state of Mexico and has already taken steps in that direction. There are 32 states in that country, most of which have no Friends churches. Evangelical Friends Church-Mid America(EFC-MAYM) is feeling led to help explore through Luke 10 Trips the possibility of partnering with MYM to establish a new field in one of those states.

The Shuar People of Ecuador and Peru

Steps have already been taken by EFM over the last several years to launch a field among the under reached tribe called the Shuar who live in the jungle of southeast Ecuador. Much more help is needed to actually launch that field. Northwest Yearly Meeting(NWYM) is taking the lead on organizing exploratory trips to that area. Evangelical Friends Church-Eastern Region (EFC-ER) has also expressed interest in this opportunity.
