Celebrating God’s Faithfulness – Together
Preparing for our quadrennial General Conference this month calls us to reflect. As we look back on the last four years, we are truly humbled and amazed by how God has moved around the world. We turn toward him with eager expectancy, and the ways in which He lavishes His love upon us brings us to a place of awe, over and over again.
Global Partners could not have had the impact it has had over the past four years without the individuals and churches who have also been running the race set before all of us. God’s mission is carried out through us, His Church. Because of your faithfulness and obedience to the Lord, people have come to know Jesus Christ. Disciples have made disciples, churches have planted churches. Missionaries have been sent from everywhere to everywhere.
You have helped make this possible. So with that, we want to say thank you. Thank you for stepping into your role in the Great Commission, for advocating for God’s mission, for praying, sending, giving and going.
Join us in celebrating:
- Since 2022, 50 missionaries have been mobilized to go. Global Partners currently has 135 long-term missionaries serving (along with 113 children) in 32 countries. With more than 4 in 10 people living without access to the Gospel, we know and recognize the urgency to make disciples of all nations.
During their internship, NEXT interns serve and learn alongside long-term missionaries and local church leaders. (Pictured here: Cambodia)
- NEXT is a two to four month mentored cross-cultural immersion internship. Over the past four years, we have seen 120 interns work alongside long-term missionaries and local church leaders in 11 sites. Through this experience, interns encounter cross-cultural ministry and walk away with both a deeper understanding of God’s global mission and a deeper relationship with the Lord.
- Global Marketplace Multipliers are Christians with skills and a viable profession in the global marketplace, who are intentionally building relationships, sharing their faith and engaging in global disciple-making. Since 2022, 10 Global Marketplace Multipliers have been sent out to share their faith and their work.
God has opened doors to send new missionaries to new places
- Since 2022, 198 churches have been planted around the world.
- Since 2015, more than 683 global pastors have been resourced with ministerial training through Amplified Leaders.
- GP has a vision to go where the Gospel hasn’t gone yet – to launch new mission fields among some of the least reached people groups. God has opened doors and new GP missionary teams are preparing to go to new places. Join us in praying for locations in the Middle East, the United Kingdom (refugees and immigrants), South Asia, Southeast Asia and Northern Africa.
- We’re celebrating that the fifth International Conference of The Wesleyan Church (ICWC) took place in January 2025. Nearly 400 people gathered from over 50 countries in South Africa, to strengthen our connection as a global Wesleyan Church and our commitment to reach the unreached together.
Nearly 400 people gathered from over 50 countries in South Africa for the recent ICWC.
- And of course, we are celebrating the countless ways our missionaries have been obedient to the Lord, allowing Him to work through them to reach people around the world. They have served sacrificially and tirelessly, and we are humbled by their willingness to follow the Lord’s calling.
As we step into the next four years and beyond, we are so excited to see how God will continue to weave our hearts and journeys together to work toward a greater, eternal purpose. We are confident that as a new Executive Director of Global Partners is elected and begins to lead us onward, God will continue directing our steps toward what’s next – together.
