NCC Missions Partnership Strategy

 

 

Ongoing relationship is at the heart of how we do missions at NCC. Our desire is that missions will be a journey of transformation for NCCers, for our partner organizations, and for every person involved as we serve and pray together to see God’s kingdom come. We want to see every NCCer live ON MISSION EVERY DAY.

Through our free market missions partnership system, we carefully and prayerfully collaborate with missionaries and organizations across the globe. We combine the particular passion of NCCers with the solid expertise of a missions partner. That combination, along with teamwork, prayer,  technology, and funds, creates a powerful and sustainable way to maximize our impact locally and globally.

NCCers humbly come alongside our partners to grow as servants and students. We learn from their deep expertise in specific causes and cultures as our partnership grows. We believe that this model opens up the door for untold numbers of to be touched by the transforming power of Jesus!

PHASE 1

Exploration and Mobilization

We identify and come alongside global and local partners through a free market system.
What we look for in partnerships:

  • Church-affiliated, gospel-centric
  • Common vision
  • Strength of relationship
  • One of our nine causes
  • Transparent leadership 
  • Global and local integration
  • Evidence-based approaches

PHASE 2

Needs and Relational Assessment 

Driven by local leadership, we identify the assets and needs of the community, setting goals for time-bound, measurable outcomes. We seek to define and strengthen mutually empowering relationships.

PHASE 3

Trust and Capacity Building

We seek transformation together, fostering trust to create and implement strategy that builds on the assets of the community and helps address their needs.

PHASE 4

Sustainability and Multiplication

Physical, spiritual, and social transformation within the community is measurable. The cycle of ongoing transformation includes joint evaluation with local leadership of initiatives that are sustainable and multiplying.
