What Happens When the Global Church Comes Together?
Jairus Robb
Jairus asks the question: what happens when the global church comes together? He shares from scripture and his experience as part of our short-term mission team to Burundi that it: enables us to know God deeper, it challenges us to grow, and that it forms 'Koinonia' - relationships of deep fellowship and unity in the Holy Spirit for the gospel.

Global Mission Service – What Happens when the Global Church Comes Together?
Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-14
Read Ephesians 3:16-19
On Sunday, Jairus made a strong argument for the benefits that come from Christians of different countries and cultures meeting together and encouraging one another.
As a group, brainstorm as many of the potential benefits of a cross-cultural mission trip.
Also, are there any potential downsides of doing this?
As a church, we have committed both our prayers and our finances to supporting the church plant in Burundi.
Why might God want us to do this – to commit time and money to the growth of another church?
How might this action transform us?
How might it bring glory to God?
