Local Leaders is keen to extend its ministry internationally and throughout Australia.
The need of the Church in the Majority World for more competent leaders drives us to seek out partners in Australia who will act as our ambassadors.
One of the wonderful features of Local Leaders is how many of our supporters we have that are committed to the ministry. The Board determined that it would be a fitting way to acknowledge this commitment by encouraging some of our supporters to identify as ‘Ambassadors’.
The role of our Ambassadors is to promote the ministry in Australia amongst friends and in their church, and it is even more than that. The Board also includes Ambassadors in conversations about policy and plans for the organisation. To that end Ambassadors commit to occasionally visiting colleges and meeting with the Board to discuss their insights. We hope this will make Local Leaders a smarter organisation so that our mission expands and deepens.
Our faith in Christ is the underpinning of all Local Leaders’ activity. Ambassadors will express their faith in prayer for Local Leaders.
Ambassadors pray for Local leaders each week.
One key element of Local Leaders’ activity is to provide funds to our partner colleges. This is an expression of the fellowship we have in the Gospel.
Ambassadors contribute financially to Local Leaders’ partner colleges.
Visiting our partner colleges is an inspiration and gives a unique insight to the work of God. Such visits allow a deeper understanding of Local Leaders’ ministry.
Ambassadors visit a partner college at least every 3 years. This may include formally representing Local Leaders to monitor projects.
Local Leaders grows primarily through supporters introducing their friends to the ministry and encouraging them to become supporters.
Ambassadors introduce their friends to Local Leaders at events and through networking.
Local leaders is a learning organisation and seeks the input of supporters to help direct our international and Australian activities.
Ambassadors meet annually, by invitation, with the Executive Director and Board members to advise on current issues.
Local leaders is committed to long term investments in the Christian leaders of the Majority World and looks for supporters who will journey with them.
Ambassadors commit to serve for a three year time frame and as part of that become a formal member of the Local Leaders International Ltd.
