The experience of knowing God and the impact that relationship has on spiritual well-being, perceived ministry effectiveness, and retention of missionaries within the context of Greater Europe Mission is the subject of this thesis. The purpose concerned understanding the state of spiritual formation practices among the missionaries as well as discerning the measure of influence they exert on the three aforementioned dimensions of missionary life. The project utilized the Spiritual Well Being Scale developed by Ellison and Paloutzian and a researcher-designed instrument to gather the information for statistical analysis and correlations. The results indicated that the practice of regular spiritual disciplines definitely influence spiritual well-being within the population of missionaries of Greater Europe Mission. However, with regard to perceived ministry effectiveness and retention, the results were mixed and only a weak relationship was indicated, which was insufficient to meet the criteria of this study for a valid correlation. The analysis of the spiritual life practices in concert with the statistical results provided insight for nurturing the spiritual formation of the missionaries of Greater Europe Mission and enhancing their experience of God in such a way so as to foster an environment for contagious kingdom expansion.
