How can a seconded assignment to the USCWM benefit you and your members?

Are you looking for a place where your missionaries can research solutions to special problems that may be facing your agency, or continue in other strategic service?
Consider having them represent your agency at the U.S. Center for World Mission. Missionaries from AIM, TEAM, OMF, OM, SEND, CMA, IMB/SBC, Frontiers, Pioneers and other agencies have served with us in this way. Such missionaries can make a continuing contribution to your agency while working at the USCWM.

What your agency gains out of assigning people to the USCWM:

• Opportunities to represent your agency to the flow of visitors drawn by USCWM resources.
• Relationships with USCWM staff anticipating future field service.
• Involvement in continuing discussions of field strategy.

What your missionary gains out of an assignment to the USCWM:

• A strategic U.S. assignment worthy of continued missionary support.
• A broadening network of relationships with a stream of guest missionaries and leaders.
• An overview of global mission developments—a great complement to specific field insights.
• Supervised, accredited, continuing foundational education.
• Opportunities to share insights gained on the field.
• A mission-focused K-8 grade school.
• A caring residential missionary community.
• Continued encouragement, accountability and assistance in support raising development.

How the USCWM benefits from your agency personnel:

• The USCWM exists to serve mission agencies like yours. Its effectiveness is enhanced when it can work with and through your assigned representatives. This has proven the best way for the USCWM to promote what your agency is doing and adapt USCWM ministries to benefit your agency.
• USCWM Strategy Institutes are enhanced by the additional insights of each person with field experience.
• USCWM members and interns anticipating later field service benefit from contact with representatives of agencies with which they may later wish to serve.

The participation of your “U.S. bound” missionaries is vital to the ultimate effectiveness of the U.S. Center for World Mission (and its affiliated university) in its service to your and other agencies. Should you assign one or more of your missionaries to work with us, we will do all we can to make sure your goals are met.
