In our increasingly interconnected world, mission networks are now shaping the most innovative collaborative strategies for reaching the unreached with the Gospel. These networks and partnerships provide a critical meeting point for mission leaders to build trust, and learn to work in partnership with each one contributing different resources and expertise. Our work with networks and partnerships is prioritized in areas that will result in the greatest breakthroughs to advance the Gospel. These are areas where the situations are too complex, where the challenges are too big, and where the resources required are simply too great for any one organization. 327260 20671 65053 Equipping Network Leaders:visionSynergy developed and published over 110 collaboration resources, as well as webinars, training videos and an introductory email course to equip leaders with the Biblical values and skills needed to work together for greater mission impact. We delivered dozens of online and on-site collaboration training activities and events throughout the year including our Synergy Summit semi-annual international conference, keynotes, webinars, workshops, courses, and more. The Summit brought together 132 leaders from 36 countries and over 44 networks for training and shared learning to lead and partner for the Gospel. In 2015 we launched our new Synergy Commons website, to provide collaboration resources, online training, and learning community for over 400 members/leaders from around the world. 184003 4927 Advocating for Collaboration:visionSynergy advocates for collaboration in ministry and missions by speaking, publishing, and convening strategic gatherings to encourage Christian leaders to adopt a partnership approach to ministry.
