Supporting Global Workers & Partners

Mission is from everywhere to everyone. Our directory includes Indigenous leaders, Workers in Canada, Bi-vocational Professionals, and Global Workers supporting Jesus' mission in other cultures. In places where an existing Indigenous-led church exists, we join humbly and mutually, in response to expressed needs. You can invest in workers, sent with a variety of agencies, so they can participate in Jesus mission across different contexts.

    Host in Canada

    You can support and build relationship with women and men serving cross-culturally. Whether from Canada, or elsewhere, we support these workers and partners in Jesus' mission. Near or far, you can make a difference. Showing hospitality is an incredible way to bless others. When Global Workers and Partners are among us, you can have an amazing impact through opening your home, helping with logistics, transportation and the like. Please contact us if you are interested in assisting in this way.

Prayer with
World Partners

Prayer is the nutrient base of the missionary—God working in them and for them as they seek to make Him known around the world. It feeds them. As you work your way through the calendar with us, know that the Holy Spirit is faster than any broadband speed. In the moment you pray, God is there with you as well as the one you are praying for. Watch as He transforms impossible situations into celebrations. Watch as He infuses purpose back into a hopeless heart wrecked with discouragement. Watch as your prayers for our missionaries move the hand of God to change the world.

Four Stages of Global Partnership

  • A circular purple icon of an outline illustration in white depicting a small hill with one person at the top reaching down to help another person at the bottom climb up.

    Stage One: Pioneer

    Requires the gift of leadership, among other gifts.

    No believers - missionary must lead and do much of the work themselves.

  • A circular purple icon of an outline illustration in white depicting two people raising their hands in celebration, symbolized by spark-like symbols around their hands.

    Stage Two: Parent

    Requires the gift of teaching.

    The young church has a growing child’s relationship to the mission. But then “parent” must avoid “parentalism.”

  • A circular purple icon of an outline illustration in white depicting two people with a plant or tree between them. Lines connect them each to the tree and the tree has two spark-like symbols around it, indicating growth and life.

    Stage Three: Partner

    Requires changes from parent-child relation to adult-adult relation. Difficult for both to change, but essential to the church’s becoming a mature “adult.”

  • A circular purple icon of an outline illustration in white depicting three connected circles with lines, forming a triangle, on a purple background.

    Stage Four: Participants

    A fully mature church assumes leadership.

    As long as the mission remains, it should use its gifts to strengthen the church to meet the original objectives of Matthew 28:19-20. Meanwhile the mission and the church begin to participate mutually in mission everywhere.
