Ever wondered how to become a church that sends missionaries? Are you already

sending missionaries, but don’t quite know how to continue the relationship and care

for them well? Would you say by God’s grace you’re doing well, but you want to get

better and connect with other sending churches and leaders? The Sending Church

Summit is for you.

Spend time being encouraged & equipped by IMB mobilization staff, hearing from

current missionaries and sending churches, and developing your own strategies and

plans for how to send well.

Part of our time together will be spent in workshops where you and your team will

evaluate and work on your own church’s plans in real time.

Who should come:

• Churches who are currently sending missionaries…

• Churches who want to send missionaries…

• Missionaries who have, or want, a sending church…

• Or anyone in between!

What to expect:

• Best practices for sending and caring for missionaries well

• How to grow from a partnering church into a sending church

• How to take your first steps as a partner or sending church

• Build connections between missionaries and churches

• Hear from current missionaries and sending churches

• Giveaways, snacks, & meals together
