Missionaries

No. Just go talk to people. Being a missionary isn't always aproffesional job.

Probably one of the most famous recent medical missionary was Mother Theresa, a Catholic nun who worked with the poor. In fact, almost all Catholic convents have had medical missionaries. Many non-Catholic churches have medical teams as part of missionary work, for example, the missionaries who were present in Haiti for many years, long before the earthquake.

Historically, every church has used medical missionaries.

David Livingstone was a Scottish Missionary in Africa, who went to medical school.

Acts 9:26-30 speaks of Paul's boldness in teaching others about the good news of the Christ in Jerusalem: 26On arriving in Jerusalem he made efforts to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, because they did not believe he was a disciple. 27 So Bar′na·bas came to his aid and led him to the apostles, and he told them in detail how on the road he had seen the Lord and that he had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken boldly in the name of Jesus. 28 And he continued with them, walking in and out at Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord; 29 and he was talking and disputing with the Greek-speaking Jews. But these made attempts to do away with him. 30 When the brothers detected this, they brought him down to Caes·a·re′a and sent him off to Tarsus.

Although Sanford Dole declined to officially be part of the Committee of Safety on January 14, he helped draft their declaration.

well... most of the time the families of the church, that the missionaries go to, the families make the missionaries food, such as breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even snacks.

Missionaries are sent all over the world for various reasons. Some missionaries are known as medical missionaries. These are doctors, pharmacists, or nurses that go overseas and use medical experience to help out in other countries.

Other types of missionaries are Religious Missionaries, Sports Missionaries, and many others. These are fairly self-explanatory.

Missionary's work everywhere.

Not in the common sense of the term. In the common sense of the term, a missionary is one who goes out from the church (within the Christian context) to do God's work (evangelism, churchplanting, discipleship and other forms of Christian ministry) to those outside the church (often, but not always, cross-culturally).

Since Moses was not a Christian (since Moses lived many centuries before Jesus Christ) and wasn't really seeking to share his faith to those outside of his faith, he would not be thought of as a missionary.

Of course the term missionary (etymologically) means one who is carrying out the mission of God. Since Moses was carrying out God's mission of bringing God's word to the Israelites, one could argue that he was a pre-Christian model of a missionary.

Missionaries came to Ireland in order to convert the generally Pagan population to Catholicism . They did this through preaching and combining the teachings of Catholicism with the previous Pagan traditions. This obviously worked as Ireland is now a 90% Catholic nation the other 10% being made up largely of non-nationals who practice different religions. However, a recent survey showed that 86% of people, although claiming to be Catholic, do not attend mass.

Catholic missionaries have traveled the globe, since the first century they have gone into every known land.

Mary Slessor was a missionary in African tribes and made peace with everyone

More than 100.

Missionary work in the Oregon country was not very successful because the Native Americans were very suspicious of the missionaries because of the diseases that were introduced by missionaries and white immigrants.

Christianity became the danish state religion when the missionary Poppo came to the king Harald Blåtand (Harald Bluetooth) and convinced him of the religion. This happened around the year 900, and according to the story Poppo proved god's power by carrying red-hot metal in his bare hands without injury, and being impressed by the feat Harald dictated that Denmark should be a christian country. In reality, he might have done it to avoid a conflict with the christian society.

Before christianity danes believed in the Asa faith.

Imperialism is good because it gives the natives a chance to be converted.

Nixon. He himself reportedly wanted to be an FBI agent.

Marcus Whitman and his family were missionaries and pioneers in Oregon.

The first baptist missionary into Japan was Jonathan Goble. He entered Japan along with his wife in the April of 1860. and was part of The American Baptist Free Mission Society. He was very gifted in Bible translation due to his capability in languages. His translations of Scripture into Japanese, one of the first translations for Japan, exist to this day.

I would imagine that everyone (regardless of creed) is against injustice.

The problem is that different groups of people define injustice differently.

I personally feel it is an injustice to deny a person equal opportunities, responsibilities and respect because of race or gender. But, most Abrahamic religions teach that women are subordinate, cannot teach or instruct men and must obey their fathers and husbands.

There are any Christians who feel that capitol punishment is an injustice and I find myself fence-sitting on the issue.

To add complications, different Christians believe different things and everyone's beliefs are colored by the culture they grow up in. An American Christian might feel that it is an injustice for a young child to be asked to work in a factory to help support the family, while a Christian in a developing country might disagree. A Methodist might think it is unfair that the child of a Jehovah's witness has to leave a classroom when there is a birthday celebration. But, the Jehovah's Witness would disagree.

So, the most we can really get out of this is that everyone want to be a good person but it is pointless to try to lump people all together under one big label and expect them to all think and act alike.

Christians like social justice cuz they are awesome

Very simple. If one has a human soul he does what Jesus did.

Otherwise, one has to fight the unjust people or join them much like all other creatures do while looking for survival as long as possible.

If they have a computer or access to one, send it via their missionary organization , such as 'cms' [Church Missionary Society] among others.

Yes they can, so long as the message contains only those things which will be uplifting to the Missionary. Remember they are called to bring people to Christ, they cannot do this if the message received causes them to detract from their purpose.

October 24, 1841. "Now, O Lord! Thy servant has been obedient to the heavenly vision which Thou gavest him in his native land; and under the shadow of Thine outstretched arm, he has safely arrived in this place to dedicate and consecrate this land unto Thee, for the gathering together of Judah's scattered remnants, according to the predictions of the holy Prophets -- for the building up of Jerusalem again after it has been trodden down by the Gentiles so long, and for rearing a Temple in honor of Thy name. Everlasting thanks be ascribed unto Thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that Thou hast preserved Thy servant from the dangers of the seas, and from the plague and pestilence which have caused the land to mourn. The violence of man has also been restrained, and Thy providential care by night and by day has been exercised over Thine unworthy servant. Accept, therefore, O Lord, the tribute of a grateful heart for all past favors, and be pleased to continue Thy kindness and mercy towards a needy worm of the dust."
