Who Wants To Be A Missionary?

Welcome to our latest `Who Wants to Be a Missionary?' quiz.

This quiz is designed as a light-hearted way of testing your knowledge as a World Christian and mission-minded individual. There is no time limit, you may `phone a friend' or `ask OSCAR' or the Internet! (clue: answers to some of the questions can be found in different sections of OSCAR).

The 100 top scorers will appear in our `Top 100 Table' and every few months we will select one of the highest scorers to receive a prize! Only your first attempt at the quiz will go into the prize draw. The next prize draw is due at the end of September 2005.
