I think the important part is to be true to the commission and "go ye." Whether one goes into the neighbor's house next door, pitches a tent in the Australian Outback, or wherever, I don't think God is necessarily concerned with numbers the way we are. I don't want to imply that numbers don't matter at all because every soul that believes glorifies God and he deserves all the glory into infinity... it's just that it's a human thing to get caught up in numbers and vainglory for the sake of pride and so on.
