The issue is this question: Why are we sending missionaries to start churches in foreign lands if we won’t even try to save the churches here?

We have missionaries from Africa coming to the US and Western Europe.

And you have a point. We desperately need to reach our neighbors, as much as we need to preach to Africa.

I would be very surprised to find that the UMC is still sending church planters to foreign lands. Mostly they send hydrologists and medical teams.
