Abstract

The paradigm for mission some time ago changed from being one-directional--from North to South and East--to being multi-direcional, what is this issue is meant by "reciprocating mission." The accompaniment model has provided one significant impetus toward mutuality in mission, as we have become more intentional about the sharing of gifts among all partners. The essays in this issue explore several aspects of this changed paradigm.
