I've been watching and listening to inspiration from 2011 Desiring God mission conference:
http://www.desiringgod.org/resource-library/conference-messages/from-every-land-to-every-land-the-internationalization-of-missions-its-potential-and-the-price#/watch/full
from Michael Oh, a missionary from Japan:
Brazil has sent out over 2,000 international missionaries. They are the 1st he has heard of that gives 75% of their church budget for global missions.
In 1951, the largest InterVarsity student ministry was in China...1 out of every 18 college students was involved in an IV group. The Communist government placed spys in each of the group...and the spys became believers. He said that a conservative figure is that today there are 75,000,000 Christians in China.
Today South Korea has sent out over 21,000 missionaries to 175 nations. It is today very likely the Number 1 missions sending nation in the world.
Multitudes are hearing of Jesus' work on their behalf in African countries and the middle-East, etc.
What an exciting time to live in. I feel insignificant compared to these excited, sharing saints.
"To every nation; to the Jew first."
