MDE BELIEVES MEANINGFUL MARKETPLACE MISSION WORK
DEPENDS ON STRONG RELATIONSHIPS
ACROSS THE BROADER BODY OF CHRIST
Built for collaboration
MDE was not created to function independently or provide every kind of support on its own.
From the beginning, MDE has depended on mutually beneficial relationships with churches, sending organizations, mobilizers, businesses, donors, intercessors, and other strategic partners. Together, these relationships form an ecosystem of support that strengthens both sustainable work and long-term disciple-making in difficult places.
This collaborative posture shapes both how MDE works and how we serve members around the world.
Different kinds of partnership
MDE collaborates with a variety of organizations and individuals, including:
Churches and Sending Organizations
Organizations that deploy and care for people serving cross-culturally, often partnering with MDE to provide additional business, professional, and missional support.
Mobilizing Organizations
Organizations that help people explore and pursue life on mission, including marketplace pathways.
Specialized Service Partners
Trusted organizations and providers offering services that members have identified as important and that extend beyond MDE’s volunteer-based support model.
Donors and Intercessors
Individuals and communities whose prayer and/or financial support sustain both MDE and the members we serve.
