21 Where does your experience align with any of this? Where would you challenge or add to what I shared? How might this thinking inform how you build partnerships locally and globally?
22 Mission Initiatives: Establishing a Holistic Wesleyan Movement
23 What is a Mission Initiative? Planting and nurturing a Wesleyan movement Asset-based leading Holistic approach locally led Healthy Partnerships engaging in mutuality and relational ministry
24 Mission Initiatives 2015 Transitions Latvia Lithuania Russia/Eurasia Current Initiatives Cambodia Cameroon Central Asia Honduras Laos Mongolia Senegal Thailand Vietnam

29 Adaptive Challenge: Transition to New Concept of Mission Partnership Short Term Needs-Based Relief Long Term Asset-Based Development
30 Methodism began as a movement of the poor, for the poor, by the poor, and with the poor. Failure to be in friendship and ministry with the poor, the imprisoned, and the vulnerable people of the world is a betrayal of the gospel as communicated through the Wesleyan tradition. Bishop Kenneth L. Carder
31 Key characteristics of ministry with the poor Relationship building Vulnerability (affinity) Power equity Inclusive worship Asset based Sustainable impact
32 Ministry with the poor The UMC has been anointed to bring and receive good news with the poor. Through developing mutually engaging relationships, we, the living body of Christ, work together to make disciples of Jesus Christ, build inclusive worship communities, transform our world and experience abundant life. Dallas Round Table of MWTP Practitioners November 2013

35 THANK YOU NEW YORK Partnerships with: Bolivia Cambodia Ecuador Ghana Mozambique
36 5 Steps for a 50/50 Conversation 1) Set Expectations: What are your dreams and aspirations? What do you hope for our partnership together? 2) Assess & Discern Partnership: How are we empowering one another? How is our partnership doing from a 50/50 perspective?
37 3) Know your Gifts: What has God blessed each of us with? What do each of us have to offer vs what do they need? What can we do WITH vs what can we do FOR? 4) Plan Together: Strategic Vision Casting based on 50/50 What can a partnership be which is relational, holistic, asset based, and locally sustainable over time.
38 5) Frequent Communication: Long- Term Deepening of Partnership How do we share best practices, acknowledge and address mistakes and ensure spiritually grounded relationships.
39 The Spirit is always moving to sweep the Church into a new mission age. With openness and gratitude we await the leading of the Spirit in ways not yet seen as God continues to work God s purposes out in our own day in a new way.
40 Therefore Go Transform the World
