Assessment Essay

Use this space to write an assessment essay based on the research listed above. What can understanding the origin/purpose/etc. of the above missions groups help us to understand about the nation to which they are ministering? Does it point to specific needs? Specific issues? Specific skills/practices/habits/etc.? This should not be a narrative of the missions’ work. Rather, it should explain what their work tells us about the nation/region.

This should be single-spaced, well-organized, have a clear thesis statement, and be at least 400 words. You should clearly use the research you did in this assignment, including the two required scholarly articles. Avoid quoting in assignment of this sort—it is better to use your own words to explain your reading.
