Partnership Information Form

Dear Fellow Servant of the Lord,

We at In Touch Mission International have a sincere desire to spread the gospel around the world. We want to use the money God provides in a wise way; one which we believe would glorify God.

We realize that there are many worthy mission projects to support with the gifts given by our donors.

We want to support men and women whose doctrinal positions are in line with ours. Our goal is to serve and empower nationals with ministries of like faith and practice.

To help ensure this, we need to have a completed information form that we ask each person or ministry desiring support from us to fill out. This is to help us work toward the goal of Biblical stewardship and helps us clarify who you are, what God is doing in your life and ministry, and whether God is leading you and ITMI to open a partnership that would be a good fit and a benefit to His Kingdom.

If we are led to connect with you and your ministry, we will need you to diligently provide ITMI with detailed quarterly financial reports and monthly activity reports including photos.

We also would like a picture of your family that we could use to introduce you and your ministry to donors and potential donors. No one will be considered for support until a complete application is reviewed and approved in writing.

In His Service,

Steve Evers
Director
