Missions Vision 2025
The MET's mission strategy is to cultivate meaningful relationships with Christ-centered churches and organizations dedicated to uplifting human dignity and making disciples of Jesus. Our work with our mission partners is manifested through three impactful avenues:
We Equip
- We invest our time and God-given talents in ways that inspire and fortify the mission of our global partners.
- We provide coaching, consulting, and training, focusing on strategic humanitarian and disciple-making initiatives.
- We serve in a posture of humility with the desire to also learn from our partners and grow in effectiveness locally.
We Support
- We invest our resources to help fund our partners’ work.
We Send
- We mobilize our people to engage in God’s redemptive work locally and globally.
- We come alongside local leadership to address their needs and advance their mission.
- We recognize that our experiences shape us into the image of Christ, so we approach missions with humility and a servant’s heart.

September 2024 Mission Trip
We’re excited to share that our time with the EF Siegburg church leadership was incredibly fruitful! We identified key initiatives to focus on over the next 12 months to help drive the ministry forward and amplify their impact in the community.
But this trip wasn’t just about strategic planning—it’s about investing in the people who lead so faithfully. We spent time pouring into each pastor and staff member, encouraging and supporting them as they continue to navigate ministry in their unique context. It was a weekend marked by clarity, connection, and renewed passion. We can’t wait to see all that God has in store for EF Siegburg in the coming year!
