IN 2023, AGORA MOBILIZATION EFFORTS GREW IN BOTH THE NUMBER OF INTERCESSORS AND PERSONNEL - AMONG BOTH COLLEGIAN AND TEENAGE GROUPS WITH MISSION PARTNERSHIPS AT HOME AND ABROAD. IM EXCITED TO REPORT IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS, 5 FORMER AGORA STUDENTS LAUNCHED FULL-TIME IN GLOBAL MISSIONS IN FRANCE, JAPAN, AND LAOS. OVER 85 TEENS AND COLLEGIANS WERE INVOLVED IN AGORAS MISSION CAMPS, WHERE, BEYOND SERVING THE LOST AND MARGINALIZED, THEY WERE ABLE TO PERSONALLY GROW BY EXPLORING THEIR CALL, EXPANDING THEIR KNOWLEDGE, AND EXPERIENCING THE FIELD. THIS CONTINUES AGORAS COMMITMENT TO PREPARING AND MOBILIZING NEXT GENERATION LEADERS AROUND THE GLOBE. A. OUR PARTNERSHIP LAUNCH WITH CHANGE THE MAP HAS NOW, IN 2023, RESULTED IN MULTIPLE PASTOR AND CHI ALPHA CAMPUS MINISTRY TEAMS TO ASIA, AS WELL AS MULTIPLE NEW LOCAL CHURCH PARTNERSHIPS, MISSION TEAMS AND INTERCESSION INITIATIVES. B. WE CONTINUE TO BE A PART OF THE CTM VISION AND LEADERSHIP TEAM AND SERVE THE MINISTRY BY RESOURCING MISSIONARIES WHEN THEY COME STATESIDE. WE AT AGORA ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO A VERY ACTIVE 2024. WE WILL SPEAK AND INSPIRE OVER 25 CHURCHES WITH SUNDAY MINISTRY. WITH NINE MISSIONS TRIPS AND TEAMS BETWEEN TEENS, YOUNG ADULTS, AND LOCAL CHURCHES, WE WILL LEAD THEM INTO GODS HEART FOR THE NATIONS. THEIR VISION AND PASSION FOR THE MISSION OF GOD WILL GROW, AND WE AS AGORA WILL CONTINUE TO FULFILL OUR MANDATE TO MOBILIZE PEOPLE AND PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN MISSION.
