The mission focused its effort on evangelism and church planting in rural communities of inland China until begin expelled in 1950 by Chinese Communists. The mission was later renamed Overseas Missionary Fellowship and began working in other Asian countries, at first in their Chinese communities and then their broader populations. The US Home Council was established in 1901 and incorporated in 1932, administratively under the North American Council until 1969. The Home Council oversaw the screening of candidates, coordinating prayer and information distribution.
