OUR MISSION IS TO ACCELERATE THE GREAT COMMISSION BY EQUIPPING LEADERS, DEVELOPING NETWORKS, AND CATALYZING COLLABORATION TOWARD SPIRITUAL BREAKTHROUGHS AMONG THE LEAST REACHED PEOPLES AND PLACES OF THE WORLD.

DEVELOPING NETWORKS: WE COACH AND ADVISE CHRISTIAN NETWORK LEADERS TO FACILITATE MULTI-ORGANIZATIONAL COLLABORATION FOR EXPONENTIAL IMPACT. IN 2022, OUR TEAM COACHED AND ADVISED 151 LEADERS FROM 21 COUNTRIES. THESE LEADERS ARE ACTIVELY DEVELOPING 132 NETWORKS THAT COLLECTIVELY INVOLVE HUNDREDS OF MINISTRY LEADERS, REPRESENTING MORE THAN A THOUSAND ORGANIZATIONS WORKING TOGETHER ACROSS A VARIETY OF MINISTRY AREAS. WE ALSO FACILITATED THREE SYNERGY CATALYST PROGRAM (SCP) COHORTS AND CELEBRATED THE GRADUATION OF 22 LEADERS FROM THIS 18-MONTH NETWORK DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. THE 57 CATALYSTS WHO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROGRAM ARE NOW ACTIVELY FACILITATING 108 MISSION NETWORKS! MOST OF THESE NETWORKS ARE OPERATING IN NORTH INDIA AND NEPAL WHERE THEIR COOPERATIVE EFFORTS HAVE ALREADY RESULTED IN MULTIPLE DISCIPLE-MAKING MOVEMENTS AND HUNDREDS OF NEW CHURCHES AND SOCIAL IMPACT INITIATIVES AMONG SOME OF THE LEAST REACHED PEOPLES AND PLACES OF THE WORLD. OUR TEAM HAS ALSO SERVED AS STRATEGIC ADVISORS WITH SEVEN COUNTRYWIDE MINISTRY PARTNERSHIPS, IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA. IN ADDITION, OUR VISIONSYNERGY ASSOCIATES IN EGYPT CURRENTLY LEAD A NATIONAL INITIATIVE WHICH IS ACTIVELY DEVELOPING 31 NETWORKS INVOLVING HUNDREDS OF LEADERS ACROSS THE SPECTRUM OF THE EGYPTIAN CHURCH AND MISSION MOVEMENT.

EQUIPPING NETWORK LEADERS: WE FACILITATE LEARNING EXPERIENCES AMONG MISSION NETWORK LEADERS THAT FOSTER PEER LEARNING AND CONNECTION. THIS YEAR WE PROVIDED COLLABORATION TRAINING FOR 1,300 LEADERS THROUGH FACILITATED EVENTS LIKE REGIONAL SUMMITS IN NEPAL AND EGYPT, ONLINE WEBINARS, AND WORKSHOPS AT VARIOUS GLOBAL EVENTS. WE SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED OUR TRAINING IN EGYPT THROUGH OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE EVANGELICAL FELLOWSHIP OF EGYPT, EQUIPPED LAUSANNE NETWORK CATALYSTS IN NETWORK EVALUATION, AND LAUNCHED A NEW TRAINING PROGRAM TO EQUIP NETWORK COACHES.

ADVOCATING FOR COLLABORATION: WE ADVOCATE FOR INCREASED COLLABORATION IN THE CHRISTIAN MISSION MOVEMENT THROUGH SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS AND PUBLICATIONS THAT INFORM AND INSPIRE. THIS PAST YEAR OUR TEAM MADE PRESENTATIONS AT NUMEROUS CONFERENCES THAT COLLECTIVELY INVOLVED 530 ATTENDEES. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH A HONG KONG NETWORK LEADER, VISIONSYNERGY FOUNDER PHILL BUTLER'S PARTNERSHIP HANDBOOK WELL CONNECTED, AND 2020 SYNERGY SUMMIT RESOURCES WERE TRANSLATED INTO CHINESE FOR THE HONG KONG CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY. PHILL ALSO LAUNCHED A RESOURCE WEBSITE, KINGDOM-RESOURCE.ORG, THAT INCLUDES MORE THAN 150 ARTICLES AND 40 VIDEOS ON COLLABORATION AND COMMUNICATIONS.
