OM USA Focuses on Serving to Make World Impact!OM International The people in Operation Mobilization's USA office serve in many different ways. Some focus on Americans working overseas with OM, and others focus on mobilizing and partnering with American churches to PRAY, GO, GIVE, and GROW! Below is a brief list of some of the ministries OM USA is involved in.
1. Recruit, prepare and then place new American missionaries around the world. This requires recruiters, organizing and traveling to conferences, phone calls, emails, letters, and writing and designing brochures, and maintaining websites. 2. Send out approximately 700 short-term American missionaries and about 90 new one- to two-year American missionaries each year. 3. Care for and serve American OM missionaries. This requires implementing personnel policies such as a health insurance policy, retirement, etc., visiting fields, hosting OM workers at OM USA, maintaining computer records, and much more. 4. Receive, issue receipts for, account for and transfer money given for OM's ministry. This requires data entry, bookkeepers, administrators, computers, an annual external audit and communication systems. 5. Communicate with the more than 80,000 people on the OM USA mailing list. This includes publication of a quarterly newsletter, Peter Maiden's monthly International Update to a segment of that mailing list, and sending out newsletters for some other fields. 6. Represent OM at mission conferences, church meetings and college events. This includes preaching, speaking about OM, hosting book tables and arranging itineraries for OM field representatives and presentation teams. 7. Raise financial resources for OM’s work around the world through contact with individual donors, foundations and churches. 8. Produce and distribute audiovisual materials to communicate the work of Operation Mobilization. 9. Minister to and help mobilize the huge evangelical church in the US by preaching/speaking on missions, helping them develop their own missions program, and exposing and training church members through short-term missions. 10. Order, receive and ship equipment, computer software and other items for OM ministries around the world. 11. Provide hospitality for visiting OM missionaries, prayer partners, and other guests. 12. Network with national and international mission associations, agencies and other Christian organizations to work together to fulfill the Great Commission! This is just some of the things that OM USA is doing. If you are interested in serving others, let us know! 1-800-899-0432 www.omusa.org
