Church-to-Church Partnerships (CCPs)
CCPs are two churches from different cultures working alongside one another in meaningful and culturally relevant ways.
These partnerships:
​
-
Are directed and empowered by God for the expansion of His Kingdom in both contexts.
-
Entail trust, Christian community, respect, and love.
-
Promote learning from each other while serving each other.
-
Minimize cycles of harmful missional practices.
