Mission Interpreter Ministry
Telling the story of our hands doing God’s work in the world. Mission Interpreter Ministry is storytelling, Walking Together collaborations, and the sharing of stories of faith in action (SOFIA).
Mission interpreters are volunteers from congregations who:
- Tell the story of how our gifts and talents are transformed by God into ministries that benefit the world.
- Relay information about initiatives that impact our communities.
- Remind us of how we make a difference in Christ’s mission and the work of the Church.
- Help create cultures of gratitude where others are thanked for their faithful giving of time, talents, and financial gifts.
We have a story to tell!
Working together, we make Christ known in ways that no individual member or single part of the church can do alone. By increasing our understanding of the work we do together and sharing these stories with others, we see God reforming the world through us.
Help us plant Mission Interpreter Ministry in every congregation. Join our Mission Interpreter Network today!
For we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard. Acts 4:20
