Asian-Pacific Coordinating Committee

The Asian-Pacific Ministries director, four local conference Asian-Pacific coordinators and seven language representatives work closely together to develop a union-wide coalition for effective ministries in the 21st century. This team seeks to train and equip laypersons in diverse areas of ministry, encourage the development of spiritual gifts, and inspire evangelism throughout the union.

The Asian/Pacific Ministries office consists of four conference coordinators and seven language representatives under the Union director. The committee meets four times a year to plan and implement policies and procedures affecting the outreach and development of its territory.
