Description ACCESS—Assisting and Coaching Churches to Effectively Send and Sustain—helps churches sharpen their focus in Global Outreach. This weekend training seminar educates and challenges churches to move to the next level with their current missions strategy so they may more effectively partner with their missionaries. Local churches will interact with mission leaders and discover ways of raising the bar of their missions program or discover a place to start if they don’t have one at all. Beginning with a strong focus on the glory of God as a basis for joining Him in what He is doing around the globe, this seminar becomes more focused throughout the day to focus on practical issues. ACCESS can be conducted anywhere that a church is willing to host it. If you think your church would be interested, please let us know.
