Board of World Missions
BWM’s task is really two-fold. First, it will sort and sift through numerous already existing international mission projects to identify those that are consistent with our theological emphasis and fiscally worthy of support. These will be made available to congregations who may wish, voluntarily, to support them. This saves each congregation the time and work of sifting through them all by themselves. Secondly, BWM is responsible for administering and supervising any District-wide mission projects that the annual convention may establish.
If you are interested in serving on this board, please contact Mark Richardson (715-417-1317 or mjrichardson@augustanadistrict.org).
World Mission Ministry Information Form
The Board of World Missions has devised a form to use to gather information from various missions agencies. The Board has used this form as a tool for its own “vetting” of these agencies. We make it available for use in your own congregation for those missions agencies you wish to study. You can find the form here.
Our Mission Partners
The Board of World Missions has researched and vetted a number of missions agencies and organizations. We have invited them to post brief information about their missions and ministries here, on our website, as well as to provide a link to their own. These vetted agencies and organizations represent the opinions of the Board of World Missions, and their recommendations do not eliminate each congregation’s or individual’s need to perform their own due diligence. That said, we are glad to share with you some very exciting ministries in World Missions. If there are other agencies, missions, and/or organizations that would like to be considered by the Board of World Missions, please contact the District Service Coordinator or the Chair of the Board of World Missions.
