The National Office has some resources for churches and missions leaders. The link above will take you to the yearly mission emphasis resources, helpful brochures to download and some other tools that may help you.

The Alongside Journey is a resource produced by the C&MA for Churches and Districts that gives ideas on how we can come “alongside” our International Workers (IWs) through various phases of their ministry journey.

If you are planning a short term trip to visit an international worker, field or ministry, Envision is a great way to get there! They can help you organize your trip, connect you with work and they even have specific sites that are set up to support teams. As an official structure of the Alliance you also serve with Envision as an intern or resident.

This document has a list of ways that churches have creatively cared for international workers. Use this when you are looking for some new ideas on how to support your workers outside of fundraising.

International workers love it when we are curious about what they do. This list of questions can be used when you are getting to know an international worker or if you are preparing to interview them in front of your church.

This document should be used as a guide when you are considering having international workers come to your city and church. There are questions to consider about hospitality, ministry logistics and the relationship IWs can have with your church. Consider these questions, answer them for your context and if you need additional support email Hannah or Amber!

The Converge Leadership Planning Team created this assessment for you to use in your churches. This tool is best used in the context of a missions or leadership team and worked through over time. It can be overwhelming at first so taking it one section at a time and prayerfully considering your context will be important.
