SEANET and RESOURCES for the BUDDHIST WORLD

OMF and the Buddhist World: From the early days of Hudson Taylor the CIM, now OMF, has been working primarily among peoples with predominantly Buddhist worldviews. Though some OMFers work with a few Muslim groups or animistic tribes, the majority of populations and peoples that most OMFers serve are either folk Buddhists or those significantly influenced by Buddhism, even among some tribes. Within OMF are some careful researchers and excellent scholars of mission. But most in OMF today are dedicated, hard working practitioners. This article will introduce some resources that may help to enhance vital church multiplying efforts among Buddhist populations in Asia. SEANET is one of those resources available especially to aid practitioners.
