As a part of this effort PPM facilitated mission trip logistics for over 550 unique mission groups; including arranging meals lodging and transportation for each team that served. Note: Domestic teams serving in the lower 48 states generally arranged their own transportation to ministry sites. PPM staff were also assigned to lead each group spending between six and twelve months preparing for each trip through phone and in-person consultations. Significant time and resources were also invested in preparing for these teams through networking and investing in trusted host partners and ministries in each location.

PPM365 is a continuous effort to build up encourage and assist the local Church 365 days a year. By sponsoring a churchs involvement in this program pastors and ministry leaders receive local support training and encouragement leading to transformed communities in the name of Christ. Three areas of focus work in unison to accomplish this intentional effort. Church: The Local Church is the catalyst for reaching our world for Christ. It is Gods master plan - to use His people to love and serve our world sharing the Good News of grace by faith to all people. Pastor: An investment in a pastor is an investment in the Church. When pastors are healthy both spiritually and physically they are most able to lead a healthy vibrant congregation. Community: Communities benefit when the local church is thriving. From support and care to meeting physical needs; a healthy Church is vital to a community.
