COCIN Sends Pastor To UK To Set Up New Church (pictures) by ViewPointNig: 12:54pm On May 27, 2013
In conformity with the "Great Commission", which mandates believers to take the Gospel to the four corners of the earth, the Church of Christ in Nations -COCIN (Formerly Church of Christ in Nigeria) has commissioned and sent one of its pastors, Rev. Kefas Amos Tang'an to the UK to explore the feasibility of starting-up churches in England and Scotland.

In an address at the 3rd congress meeting of the Plateau State Association (PSA), UK held in Acton, West London, Rev. Kefas Tang'an stated that COCIN has identified the need to return the Gospel back to its source (England, Scotland etc), given that people from these countries, who are the original forebearers of the Gospel and who lovingly brought it to us have abandoned its teachings and imbibed secularism as their way of life.

Quite agree with you. As for those less developed nations, there are missionaries there, just that it is not like it used to be in the days of David Livingstone or others that did theirs during the era of colonization.
As for Somalia or other countries associated with communism or the other "faith", there are missionaries there but they do their evangelization in a covert way; unlike what you do see in the Western world.

but it is those places that need to hear the gospel ,not countries like canada or usa.infact these countries brought the gospel to us .i believe there must be a financial reason for all these churches wanting to set up branches in these western nations.and most of these branches may not even have more than 50 members.

You're absolutely correct. The western missionaries are good at that anyway unlike us here; though there are little local missionaries from here that do those things too. That is why I respect these arab Christians or even Christians up north of our country, more than we southerners. Despite persecutions of varying degree, they still do covert evangelistic missions.
