Praying for God’s wisdom, direction, and power

 

We know that this is God’s work. As we humbly and desperately call on Him, He is glorified as He lavishly pours out His grace.

 

Sending short-term and long-term ambassadors

 

Just as we see long and short-term workers being sent in the book of Acts, we believe God uses short-term teams to complement the work of our long-term ambassadors. Short-term teams have been instrumental in developing long-term relationships.

 

Equipping national leaders of local fellowships

 

Healthy, reproducing, national fellowships are far more effective than a few cross-cultural workers. We strive to encourage and equip local leaders so that they can in turn equip their local bodies for the work of ministry.

 

Translating appropriate books and materials

 

Americans are blessed by thousands of excellent books, conferences, and DVDs. We desire to bring the best of these to people in their own languages for the edification and building up of the global body of Christ.

 

Implementing projects based on identified needs

 

In this generation America has tremendous financial resources. We desire to be good stewards of these gifts and use money wisely to help establish ministries among our partners.

 

Partnering with local fellowships

 

Where possible, in all that we do, we strive to operate through local churches and not as a separate entity. Also we desire to connect US churches directly with national fellowships in our areas of focus.
