Mission
and ministry in India is such a diverse involvement.
Therefore, no one single book, no one single article,
or no one single write up on the above topic can
exhaust all the implication that are involved.

Mission and ministry in India mainly was the
vision and the missiological perspective of the
western missionary mind. The K.W.M.C. of 2008, is
called upon to examine and evaluate the ministry
and the own hearts in the areas where we have failed
to carry out an effective Christian Ministry in
the 21ST century. Today, whoever wants to be a missionary
in India, one needs to understand the Indian context
properly in its political, cultural, social, economical
and religious background. India being the pluralistic
country, such as the multi dimensional, multi lingual,
multi ethnic, multi cultural, multi ideological
diversities. Therefore, it is the need of the hour
for all men and women who are called and commissioned
by our Lord Jesus Christ must and should realize
that, the church is the result of God’s mission
to the World. One should also bear in mind that,
we are called by our Lord Jesus Christ to be colleagues
and co-workers in carrying out the great commission
as instruments. We as the missionaries of the present
world must acknowledge the fact that, the Church
is the agent of this mission as she proclaims and
expounds this gospel of Jesus Christ and penetrates
into World on partnership with God’s mission to
the World. The Church, as missionary people of God,
connects the good news of Jesus Christ to mission
and mission to gospel
