MISSION PROJECTS
We will partner with ministries/missionaries that align with our statement of beliefs. As we find those doing ministry, we want to create partnerships to invest in financially but also so that our employees can be involved physically going so they can gain “buy in” and become a part of a bigger picture. We would like to conduct survey trips at the beginning of any partnership, to best determine if it is a project that we want to sponsor as Meherrin on Mission. Survey trips may involve one or more ministries/missionaries depending on the area we are visiting. These survey trips will be done by either those on the Ministry Action Team, Meherrin on Mission board, or those nominated by either of previous mention.
As Missions Ministry, we are about furthering the kingdom of God. This task is carried out in a wide variety of forms including but not limited to: agricultural missions, orphan care, medical, education, sports, community development, clean water.
We seek to identify those missionaries that have a presence in any particular country/region/area. We acknowledge that missionaries we partner with will be tied in locally wherever they are serving to indigenous believers.
We want to make it available to our employees to be engaged in missions. We want their “buy in” to come from them being a part of a ministry in a different area.
We will seek out potential partners and plan survey trips to visit and work alongside these ministries. Through these survey trips we can vet the missionaries, their work, their local partners, how we can partner in the future and other logistical items. We will report back to the Ministry Action Team and Meherrin On Mission board to affirm our ongoing support.
Over the past 12 months, MOM has financially supported these ministries
-Funded to start several Compassion International projects for kids in Nicaragua
-Started several projects with ICM to build churches and hope centers in Nicaragua
Our work with ICM. As an international Christian organization, their strategy is to reach the world for Christ effectively. Equipping local churches with the tools they need to grow allows entire nations to be blanketed with healthy churches. Also, when local churches invest their own effort and resources into each project, the result is a sense of ownership, long-term sustainability, and a greater impact for every dollar you give. MOM has partnered with ICM to build churches in Brazil, Egypt and Vietnam, El Salvador and Nicaragua.
In May of 2026, MOM has entered into another agreement with ICM to buildmultiple churches and hope centers in Nicaragua.
In February 2026, MOM approved 2 funding projects in Nicaragua and an additional agricultural project with Compassion International.
Part of the vision for this partnership between MOM and CI is to have employees go and visit MOM associated children in the future. Additionally, MOM would also look for ways to help the MOM sponsored children and their families / communities.
