We, the delegates at the Filipino Theological Educators Consultation sponsored by Filipino International Network (FIN) gathered in Baguio City in January 2006, reaffirm the critical role of biblical and theological training for the Church and its global mission.

Our prayerful challenge is five-fold:

1. That the Filipino Church will continue to excel in equipping all Christians for growth and witness, and training leaders for effective ministry globally.
2. That theological institutions especially those in the Philippines will embrace the reality of Filipino Diaspora missions and will include missiological training for all pastors and Christian workers.
3. That region-specific curricula be developed to prepare the Filipino Diaspora Christians to engage in effective and contextualized ministry.
4. That a sustainable multi-delivery system of formal and non-formal theological education be sensitively coordinated and implemented for Diaspora Filipino believers in creative access nations.
5. That networking and partnership be sought with other Diaspora groups and networks to enhance and expand the availability of theological education for all Christians.
