Our mission statement reads “ACMC helps churches mobilize their resources for effective involvement in world evangelization.” Our motto provides insight into a vital part of our methodology: “churches helping churches with missions.”
ACMC provides practical services in 16 areas organized under four broad headings:
1. learning
2. leading
3. sending
4. engaging culture
This reflections will briefly describe the four areas included under the second heading -- LEADING.
MISSIONAL LEADERSHIP: Helping church mission leaders better understand, model, cast vision, train, mobilize, and support individuals in their congregation to live missionally. Helping church leaders plan and structure around mission.
VISION CASTING: Helping church mission leaders effectively paint a compelling picture for their congregation regarding their engagement with the lost among the nations (both local cross-cultural engagement and among the least reached internationally).
STRATEGY / POLICY: Once a church discerns and can articulate the unique contribution to God’s mission among the nations that they can best make, they need a clear strategy (roadmap and key partners) on how to get there and policies that provide guidelines for decision making and how they will operate. ACMC can help you develop both.
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE: Good structure will not make your church effective with missions, but poor structure will create major roadblocks. ACMC can help you develop an appropriate structure for global outreach initiatives in your church that will foster the accomplishment of your mission, vision, and strategy on the field and in church mobilization.
Our assistance to church mission leaders is made available through:
• conferences / training events
• local mission leader networks
• consulting / coaching
• developing practical mission resources
• partnership with other mission mobilization organizations.
