Our Story

First Priority exists to train and assist missionaries wherever they are in pursuing intimacy with God above all else.

We firmly believe that the spiritual health of those in ministry is the most important factor that influences ministry. It must be the first priority.

We believe that when a missionary is encouraged, they are better able to love God and serve others and the Gospel goes forward in a more powerful way.

Our vision in making these online courses available is that many of you will experience the presence and reality of God in a fresh way in your life. We pray that from this intimacy with Him, your ministry will flourish.

Testimonials

This team has been a great blessing to many of our workers and teams throughout our European region. Knowing the importance of a close and intimate walk with God from personal experience as well as a mission leader, I am delighted to hear about this new training initiative. May God use this course for His glory and so that everyone who takes it will walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith (Col 2:6-7).

Harry and Wendy have a clear love for the Lord and for his people. Since the time they joined College Church in Wheaton, I have seen them consistently point those in our missionary family to the Lord, for which I am incredibly thankful.

May the Lord bless this venture!
