The church ministry department of The Mission Society recently launched Team 2:2. The group’s name was taken from II Timothy 2:2, “What you have heard me teach publicly you should teach to others. Share these teachings with people you can trust. Then they will be able to teach others these same things” (ERV).

For the past 12 years, The Mission Society has come alongside local churches to help them discover their unique missional calling. Scores of churches in the United States have been transformed and are now engaged in significant, strategic outreach in their community, nation, and world. Having experienced transformation themselves, select churches are now seeking to mentor other congregations which are passionate about joining Jesus in His mission.

Team 2:2 is comprised of capable individuals from churches that have successfully implemented The Mission Society’s Global Outreach process. Within their own local churches, these individuals will form teaching units that will serve as instructor/coaches in partnership with The Mission Society in order to recruit, train, and assist congregations to become personally and strategically engaged in reaching the world for Christ.

Upon completion of the initial training for the first group of Team 2:2 churches, Stan Self, senior director of church ministry, said, “I was overjoyed with the buy-in and excitement exhibited by the first group of men and women we trained. I really believe we are on the cusp of seeing God do a new thing with this Global Outreach ministry that He has blessed over the past 12 years.”

The first four Team 2:2 churches include; Epworth United Methodist Church in Franklin, Tennessee; Grace United Methodist Church in Cape Coral, Florida, Roswell United Methodist Church in Roswell, Georgia; and The Family Church in Gainesville, Florida.
