SECURITY MOP in Asia January 2012 Rich Ramirez

Why discuss Security? “ … 15 When our enemies heard that we were aware of their plot and that God had frustrated it, we all returned to the wall, each to his own work. 16 From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor…“ Nehemiah 4:13-18

Commitment to Membership SEND International believes our members are our greatest resource. It is essential to provide an organizational structure and climate which: respects the dignity and worth of each person and family, encourages initiative, challenges individual capacities, and provides opportunity for the greatest development and use of each person’s God- given gift and call in fulfillment of our Mission.

Our Values  URGENCY  DEPENDENCE  SERVANTHOOD  BELONGING  INTEGRITY  UNITY IN DIVERSITY

“I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.” Matthew 10:16

POLICY STATEMENT “Each member of SEND must view security as an individual responsibility, avoiding complete dependence on the SEND security program or a disregard for potential risks.” We must always remember, “the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light.” Luke 16:8 (b)

We must always remember, “the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light.” Luke 16:8 (b)
