The Birth of The Malaysia Missions Network

The Malaysia Missions Network was borne out of a consultation of pastors and leaders, jointly organized by Missions Agencies in Malaysia, on the 29th of October 2002 and held at the OMF Office in Kuala Lumpur. The consensus at this meeting was to appoint a Task Force to look at setting up a formal network for greater collaboration of Christians in Malaysia for the purpose of cross-cultural missions.

As a result of this, a task force continued to meet regularly over the next year and half, and called for a Retreat cum AGM in August 2004 where the Network was formalized and an Executive Committee (EXCO) was appointed to look into the registration of a name for this network.

The EXCO met regularly over the next 10 months, and in June of 2005, the EXCO called for an AGM where the pastors and leaders were briefed on the status of the network, and the use of the name "MALAYSIAN CENTER FOR GLOBAL MINISTRY" to replace the "Malaysia Missions Network" (The registered name of the Malaysian Center for Global Ministry is "MCGM NETWORK BERHAD").

Over the course of this period (Oct 2002 -June 2005), a number of practical things were identified that will make such a network to be of value to the Body of Christ in Malaysia :
as a forum for sharing resources, experiences and information to increase our effectiveness in deployment of personnel to missions cooperation in missionary preparation, sending and care as an "one-stop hub" for churches/ministries in missions assisting agencies in the mobilization of churches for missions cooperating in missionary and missions training working together in the challenge of reaching migrant workers in Malaysia representing the Malaysian missions movement in the international arena
