The Partnerships Missions Department helps churches and individuals to participate in hands-on missions endeavors in Kentucky, in other regions of the United States and other parts of the world. We have more than 20 years experience in international travel -- we can help plan all aspects of your mission trip, even if your church is new to active missions service! Here's how:
- Developing mission team leaders at our Team Leader Training
- Helping each member of your team prepare prior to departure (training includes cultural awareness, religious differences, evangelistic methods and dealing with travel-related issues.)
- We can help your church and/or association forge partnerships in other areas -- domestic and international.
- We keep you connected to missions though prayer, with projects such as Operation Bended Knee and by organizing prayer walking events.
- Scholarships may be available.
