    Mission/Volunteer/Planting Opportunities in MI

    We are always seeking willing partners that want to help plant new churches and strengthen existing churches in Michigan. We provide great support and training for all mission teams that come to our area. Long-term partners can also establish relationships that will make a difference over a several year period. Go to www.findMIchurch.org/volunteers for more information or contact us for information.

    Re: Mission/Volunteer/Planting Opportunities in MI

    Hi Bobby, Thanks for serving God in Michigan. I run a ministry called "Hand 2 Hand", we develop partnerships with churches in the South who have resources with Churches in the North and North West(Hence H2H). We seek out traditional churches who are looking to reach the unchurched and breakthrough into new growth. For the past 10 years I've pastored a traditional church sbc chruch that made the turn to become a mission and outreach church. Our basic premise is this: 1. The church being asssisted must have  Pastor with a vision  2. Willing to partner with a church five years or more. 3. Churches that have resources must come without prearranged agenda. 4. Churches who are assisted must be willing to commit to assist another church family in the next five years.

    For the past ten years I've been doing this in addition to pastoring a church. In May I will resign the church and try to partner and strengthen churches full time. I have more info if you want it.

    (We are based out the Tulsa/Muskogee Oklahoma area region)

    Billy,

    We may have met before since I served churches in Oklahoma and Texas for 20 years prior to moving to Michigan to serve over 6 years ago. We were assigned to Southeastern Michigan in January 2001.

    We do have some churches that would meet the criteria you mention. I'd love to get more information on your ministry and let us explore possibilities. Can you e-mail me information or do you need to mail it snail mail?
