How does a mission movement join the Faith2Share network?
The Faith2Share network began quite informally with a group of five mission agencies in Europe, Australasia and the USA who shared a common history and wished to work together more closely. Between 1999 and 2006 we grew into a more formal network with a shared purpose and values. The founder members now take responsibility for inviting others to join the network.
To join the Faith2Share network a mission agency or movement must first agree to the statement of Purpose and Values and be committed to the three primary objectives of the network which are:
· Mutual support for senior mission leaders
· Agencies sharing resources in mission
· Encouraging new mission movements
Members of the Faith2Share network share network costs on an ‘ability to contribute’ basis.
Once an application to join the network is received by the network coordinator leaders of the movement or agency will normally be invited to attend the annual leadership consultation as observers before a final decision on membership is taken.
