The Global Diaspora Network (GDN) has announced that a Global Diaspora Forum is scheduled to convene in Manila, Philippines on March 24 – 28, 2015. According to Dr. Grant McClung, President of Missions Resource Group (www.MissionsResourceGroup.org), “The Manila forum will bring together some 500 international missions and church leaders to assess the current status and set a future agenda for reaching, discipling, and multiplying churches among ‘people on the move.’” McClung, a charter member of the GDN International Advisory Board, also noted that a ground-breaking textbook in the emerging missions discipline of “diaspora missiology” will be launched at the Manila conclave. He is one of the section co-editors for the compendium project.
