Many missionaries are following the example of Paul and taking the gospel to the major cities first. Also in teaching about missions don't just present the tourist areas of a country. Some of this can best be accomplished by studying the lives of individual missionaries. Missionary education should not only have knowledge aims, but also behavior modification aims. Good teaching about missions should cause Christians to pray more and give more to missions.
Missionary education is a part of the work of some of the other church program organizations.
Awana includes crafts that relate to missions. Good News Clubs feature a mission story as part of the regular weekly program. Word of Life clubs have Christian service projects, and some of these are missionary projects. The Southern Baptist Convention has two major programs for missionary education. The Woman's Missionary Union is the missions organization for preschool children, girls, and women.
