“and all the peoples of the earth will be blessed through you.” – Genesis 12:3
VISION
We are a people blessed to bless the nations, doing whatever it takes to fulfill the Great Commission in reaching out to unreached people groups.
GOALS
Transforming the community and the nations – Each One Reaches One – by moving in Power and Love towards GOD and our neighbour.
PRIORITIES
We have three focused areas in our missions thrust and they are South East Asia, the Mekong Region and East Asia. We focus on reaching out to the three gateway peoples in these areas who, when reached, are likely to go forth and reach other near culture unreached peoples groups throughout the three regions mentioned above.
STRATEGY
PLMC members go through a missions Education, Exposure and Equipping track called the 123Go Missions Track (based on Genesis 12:3) which helps them discover their role in God’s global purpose of reaching the unreached.
There are four stages in the tract which aims to build our members as faithful senders, effective advocates, passionate mobilisers, culminating towards obedient goers / missionaries / tentmakers who are prepared for a minimum term of three years in the field.
Missionaries / tentmakers in training must be cell leaders with a proven track record as our mission strategy is primarily through cell planting and reproduction – the basis for a church planting movement among an unreached people group. Are you ready to discover your role as a World Christian?

South East Asia
South East Asia is a subregion of Asia, consisting of the countries that are south of China, east of India, west of New Guinea and north of Australia. It also consists of two geographic regions: Mainland Southeast Asia, comprising Brunei, East Malaysia, Timor Leste, Indonesia, Philippines, Christmas Island and Singapore.
The major religions are Islam and Buddhism, followed by Christianity. However, a wide variety of religions are found throughout the region, including many Hindu and animist-influenced practices.
PLMC supports 1 National Worker and other works by other organizations, in this region.
Mekong
The Greater Mekong spans Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and the southern province of Yunnan in China.
The landscapes of this vast area are just as diverse as the countries that it enshrines, from dusty savannahs to dense rainforests, and from slow-moving rivers to icy torrents.
Currently, PLMC supports 4 missionaries and their family in the Mekong region. There are other works that the volunteers of PLMC also supports.
East Asia
East Asia is a subregion of Asia that can be defined either geographically or in cultural terms. Geographically and geopolitically, it covers about 12,000,000 km2 (4,600,000 sq mi), or about 28% of the Asian continent, about 15% bigger than the area of Europe.
The UN subregion of Eastern Asia and other common definitions of East Asia contain the entirety of the People’s Republic of China, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Mongolia and Taiwan.
Culturally, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam are commonly seen as being encompassed by cultural East Asia. Currently, we are supporting 1 National worker and some other works around the region.
Education
Every potential missionary will go through his/her stages of growth through education. This will first start at the Cell Group level and then concurrently going through courses that are offered – either in-house or by organisations.
Members are encouraged to attend the below two courses:
1) Empowered to Influence
The call of the Lord Jesus Christ for every believer to be effective salt and light everywhere, and anytime, is an urgent one. Whether we are in the setting of a family, community, or society, we are called to live out the Kingdom values of righteousness, peace and joy, so that we may impact lives for the glory of our Heavenly Father and His Kingdom.
In Empowered to Influence, you will discover how the seven life-changing paradigm shifts have transformed the life and ministry of the author, Ken Chua, and how they may be applied in your life. Each of the paradigm shifts is peppered with Ken’s personal experiences and real-life encounters. Empowered to influence powerfully demonstrates how each and every committed believer, coming together as the Body of Christ, can truly unlock his or her potential and unleash a full measure of godly influence in the marketplace.
Next course: Coming Soon
2) Kairos
KAIROS is an exciting 9 lesson, interactive course that looks at our world from “God’s perspective”. The KAIROS ‘journey’ explores the Purpose and Plan of God from Genesis to the End of the Age!
KAIROS will inspire, motivate and mobilize you and your local church to explore the challenging, yet achievable, final frontiers of Christian World Mission and to identify your part and place in the growth and expansion of God’s kingdom worldwide.
