ABOUT US

IMG_4173.JPG

The Organizing for Mission Network is a community of practitioners who are using the arts and skills of community organizing to develop and redevelop gospel-centric communities that act for the sake of the world. 

​

​

Founded in 2010, OFM began as a collective of leaders focused on relationship building and the establishment of a culture of mutual accountability. In 2017, we transitioned to a broad-based, ecumenical network with members across the United States. 

​

All our organizing work, trainings, and accompaniment focus on our three lenses:

​

  • Racial and Economic Equity is our Northstar

  • Place-based organizing where issues emerge from within the community

  • Organizing is a spiritual practice

​

​

Let's Build Together!

Folks use the skills and art of faith-based organizing in ways beyond running a campaign. Our leaders have supported congregations, communities, and wider church bodies in a variety of ways, including:

​

  • Board development

  • Fundraising (Organizing Money beyond begging and borrowing)

  • Developing equity strategies

  • Strategic Planning

  • Facilitation around property use

  • Spiritual and theological resources

  • Retreat and convocation leadership

  • Holy Closure conversations

  • Building solidarity with neighborhoods and communities
