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.
Our checklist of eight essentials for evaluating potential missions’ partnerships:
1. Is their mission and vision clear?
2. Do they desire a meaningful relationship with The MET?
3. Can we effectively mobilize the people of The MET to serve, support, and make a difference?
4. Do we have confidence in the character and capacity of their leadership?
5. Are their mission and efforts gospel-centered?
6. Financially, is there a structure and system of fiscal responsibility and accountability?
7. Does this partnership opportunity come from someone within The MET?
8. Are they interested in relational discipleship? (Currently or potentially)
