Equipping and connecting leaders of good faith and good will for transformational impact.

Mission Smith Sessions

Mission Smith Sessions bring leaders together to explore God’s heart for the city, engage in meaningful conversations about community challenges, and discover practical ways to pursue transformation through learning, connection, and action. These events are designed to:

Forge sharper ideas and insights for mission
Increase our awareness about the challenges faced by some communities throughout our city
Provide a safe and welcoming environment to ask questions, discuss, and learn about real issues that are often avoided
Offer practical opportunities to become more activated in drawing closer, helping, and learning form the pain of others
Connect with others interested in seeking God's heart for the city and being a part of transformation

Go & See Tours

Go & See tours are guided visits to ministry groups doing effective work across the city. Go & Sees give leaders a firsthand look at how others structure programs, engage volunteers, and serve their neighborhoods, so they can bring fresh ideas back to their own context.

Cleveland is full of amazing leaders; we seek to connect people to each other, link our community efforts, share knowledge and build bridges that replace barriers.

Why?

God is in the business of raising up leaders, yet none of us are meant to do it alone. When people build and leverage relationships, urban leaders such as small business owners, pastors and nonprofit visionaries can more deeply impact and sustain long-term change in their communities.

Where

We equip and develop city ministry leaders throughout the Greater Cleveland Area, seeking to unite leaders from the east and west sides of the city.

Our Approach

We cultivate new and expanded approaches to supporting city leaders with a desire to impact positive change. This takes place in a few ways, joining people together for deeper personal and community transformation. We train, grow, and deploy churches and people of faith for meaningful community work.
