Partnering is an integral part of everything we do in EE People Group Services because of our deep-seated belief in the biblical concept of how the Body of Christ is to function in the world.  This ministry is only carried out in partnership with others.  We constantly ask ourselves and others:  What great things can we do to make a difference in the world by ministering together in a collaborative manner? 

Our partnerships span a wide range of collaboration and commitment in organization, funding, research, strategy and materials development, testing, implementation, revision, in-field follow-up, and administration.  Some of our partnerships are project- and time-limited, while others are more open-ended for the sake of doing whatever needs to be done to accomplish the vision we hold in common for a given people group or region.

Some of our strategic partners include: 

Our prayer warriors commit to praying for this ministry on a daily or weekly basis.  We keep them informed through the email-only "Touching Heaven Touching Nations" prayer bulletin which is sent out on an as-needed basis.  (English and Spanish available at this time.) 

The "Touching Heaven Touching Nations" (THTN) prayer bulletin is only available on request and is not to be forwarded.  We want direct email contact with each team member so that we know who is on the team and where the information is going.  Contact us to request to be part of the THTN prayer team. 

 

 

Financial resources make possible the materials, events, travel, equipment and communication that provide our services, training and tools on an international scale.  Many of the people groups we work with have very little material resources, and yet everyone who participates in this ministry is expected to shoulder some part of the responsibility for it.  Financial partners are needed to strategically help make up for what others do not have the resources for.  We currently have financial partnership opportunities ranging from $35 to $258,000, and of course gifts of any size can be used toward these projects.  Learn more about how to extend your reach to the people groups of the world through financial partnership with EE People Group Services. 

 

 

Project-specific Facilitators are individuals who bring to specific projects knowledge of the local culture and language, and the ability to be an on-site sponsor, organizer, administrator and leader for the project.  These Facilitators play a very strategic role!  We would love to hear from you if you are interested in being a Project-specific Facilitator.

Host Ministries are local churches and other organizations that provide project participants, helpers, and in some cases host training events in their facilities.  If you would like to host a training event, please contact us.

We work with EE national and international entities to help them more effectively reach people groups that need a degree of contextualization that is beyond what has been customary in EE.  We also provide services, training and tools that are useful across continents.  Our current transcontinental projects include development of:

EE entity leaders are encouraged to read our statements of vision and mission, and guiding principles.  And we look forward to hearing from you about how we can serve together with you.

EE does not exist to merely forward its own ministry, but to assist others in fulfilling God's call for them to be his witnesses.  Our EE ministry is intentionally focused so that it can be integrated into the rest of the total ministry to which your organization is called.  We would love to hear from you if you see a need for very practical training in personal evangelism in your ministry. 

Translation is an on-going strategic need in the EE People Group Services ministry.  We are constantly on the lookout for volunteer translators are fully bilingual between English and other languages, and who are native-speakers of the receptor language.  EE People Group Services adheres to a meaning-based ("dynamic equivalence") philosophy of translation such as has been defined in the published works of Beekman & Callow, Katharine Barnwell, and Mildred L. Larson.  Please contact us to find out more about this wonderful avenue of international service.

Our advisors bring an outside perspective to our ministry.  They are usually involved in an organization other than EE, but give us occasional input that broadens and enriches our perspective.  Our advisors are well grounded academically, have had extensive multicultural experience, have a great heart for personal evangelism, deeply appreciate EE, and want to be part of making the EE People Group Services ministry all that it needs to be.  If that describes you, please get in touch with us.

People Group Services Associates are long-term partners who work closely with us to develop and implement our services, training and tools within a specific geographic region or bloc of people groups.   Associates are in complete agreement with EE's and EE People Group Services' vision & mission, and our guiding principles.  Let us know if you or someone you know would be a good person for this role.

People Group Services Ministry Developers serve transcontinentally in specific research-and-development roles.  Learn more about the roles that currently need to be filled and the kind of people we are seeking for these strategic positions.
