As we transition into this exciting new phase, we are committed to fostering an environment of collaboration and innovation.  

As the research cycle for the John Powell Institute (JPI) begins, our researchers have been stewarding conversations with sending organizations around the country, hearing how God has been working and leading them to care for their cross-cultural workers. We discussed their varying successes, concerns, needs, experiences, and future goals in relation to collaboration. 

We believe that now is the time to begin operationalizing research performed in the missiological world. We will partner it with our unique standing in the life-arc of cross-cultural workers, stewarding the knowledge that we gain from preparing and debriefing hundreds of missionaries.

JPI is a new collaboration between MTI and partner agencies to form a learning community aimed at the advancement of the care, well-being, health and resilience of missionaries in the field.
