Practical Shepherding, 20schemes, and Mile One Mission have entered into a formal collaboration agreement. The Executive Directors of each of these ministries work together to move forward the goals and objectives of the coalition. While each ministry is committed to maintaining independence from one another, the alliance is a strategic way for these like-minded ministries to collaborate and share resources with each other in order to accomplish our goals.

The ministries that form the ATC Coalition are committed to financial accountability. Donations made in the USA will be received and dispersed by 20schemes. 20schemes is a 501c3 corporation which has been fully accredited by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability. They have also received the Excellence in Giving financial transparency certification. Gifts received in Canada will be accepted by Mile One Mission, which is a ministry of Calvary Baptist Church in St Johns, Newfoundland, Canada. All gifts comply with CRA charitable giving requirements. Donations are allocated to the three coalition ministries. All gifts received by ATC will be used to support church planters, pastors, and training pipelines in impoverished and hard-to-reach areas worldwide.

Yes! The ministries that are part of the ATC Coalition each have opportunities for members of partner churches to serve. This may include serving on mission trips, assisting with training programs, becoming a Ministry Intern, or supporting pastors and church planters. Once you become a partner of ATC, we will work with you to mobilize your people to respond to the needs of any of our ministry locations most effectively. Please contact us for more information on available opportunities and how to get involved.

The ministries and mission of ATC is funded by individual donors and churches who share our desire to advance the church in hard places around the world. If you, your church, or your organization is committed to training church planting teams, developing indigenous leaders, and caring well for pastors and their families in hard places around the world, then we invite you to partner with us. Partners support us in prayer, financial support, and by serving with us at one of our ministry locations around the world. Please reach out to us to discuss partnership opportunities.

The ATC Coalition is a collaboration between our three ministries because we are convinced that by working together, we can more effectively advance the church in hard places around the world.
