World Evangelical Outreach

Pioneers was originally called World Evangelical Outreach and adopted its current name in 1984.[2] It was formed in response to Ralph D. Winter's description of the task of the church as reaching unreached ethnolinguistic people groups, and "set out to practice good missiology by contextualizing its mission and message to a postmodern missionary generation."[3]
