Phase 3: GO
Apply for Partnership- If you have been attending Harvest Community Church as your home church and completed phase 1 and phase 2, then we would invite you to pursue the application and interview process. We take partnership very seriously and neither enter or break partnership lightly. If we sense that the Spirit is moving us into a new ministry partnership these are some of the key issues that we will consider.
• Do we know these new partners well enough as a church that we can vouch for their fruitfulness as followers of Christ?
• Can the prospective ministry partners articulate a clear and compelling vision for this field of ministry?
• Is this ministry a strategic fit in Harvest Communities Church's vision and strategy for world mission?

Communication- One of the key parts of your ministry when overseas is your ministry to your home church and your supporters. It is through the financial and prayer support of friends and family back home that you are able to continue living and working in the field. It is important for you to begin this process of communication before leaving for the field and to continue to be proactive in communication the entire time you are there.
When you are around meet with individuals over meals and coffee. Print up materials for your supporters to keep in front of them to remember you and your work throughout the week. Be proactive in setting up speaking engagements where you can share about your ministry. In this technological age there is little excuse for not having clear and regular digital communication (unless you are working in a remote location). As a church we highly value regular updates and communication so that we can share both the joys and burdens of your ministry.
Commission- If your application for partnership is approved then Harvest Community Church will formally commission you for the work that is set before you.
