최근 코로나-19 팬데믹(pandemic) 시대가 지속하고 계속해서 새로운 변이 바이러스가 발생하면서 전 세계적으로 위기 상황에 놓이게 되었다. 하지만 교회의 선교적 사명은 어떤 상황에서도 지속하여야 한다. 그러므로 선교사의 사역에 지장이 없도록 선교사 멤버케어에 더욱 집중해야 할 시점이다. 그러나 이번 팬데믹이 도래하 여 국경이 폐쇄되자 한국교회와 파송 단체에서는 코로나-19에 감염된 선교사와 그 가족의 건강에 대해 특별한 대책이 거의 없었다. 실제적인 도움도 주지 못하고 건강하기만을 기도할 뿐이었다. 그동안 진행되었던 멤버케어의 의미가 무색하였다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구는 당위성을 전제로 정의와 필요성을 먼저 짚어본 후 한계까지 살펴보고자 그리고 한계를 극복하 기 위한 대안으로 자신이 총체적 치유의 개념을 가지고 곳이든지 돌발적인 상황이 벌어져도 실천할 방법을 제시하고자 이를 통해 포스트 코로나(Post Corona) 시대에 전염병이 창궐 (猖獗)한다고 할지라도...
