Trainings and Events
Organizing for Mission Network is dedicated to equipping leaders with the tools that faith communities and individuals need to address systemic injustice and create the world we want to live in.
2026 Training Plans
Each year we have a mix of national, regional, local, and organization specific trainings. We've still got space to add more.
National Trainings
Every year, a network member hosts a contextual gathering where folks from across the country to learn about the grassroots organizing happening in a specific place, and how to apply lessons back home.

Online Trainings and Webinars
We believe change starts where people live, which is why place-based organizing sits at the center of our work. At the same time, we know there are moments when leaders need to build skills quickly, and online trainings can help meet that need.
​
We offered our full weeklong training online in 2020–2021, and we continue to adapt our learning spaces so people can gather, learn, and organize across distance. If you’re interested in hosting an online training, reach out to start that conversation.
