Sister Church relationships that are exciting, reciprocal, cross-cultural, intimate, in-depth, ongoing, practical and spiritual.

  Introduction to RMI

RMI develops Sister Church Partnerships through the Sister Church Program.

Sister Church Partnerships are exciting reciprocal, cross-cultural, intimate, in-depth, ongoing, practical and spiritual relationships between evangelical churches located throughout Haiti, Jamaica and Guatemala and churches all across the United States and Canada.

RMI is the lay person's mission - preparing and enabling lay people to minister cross culturally through the Sister Church Program.... Two churches from different cultures, joining together in a sister church relationship for the purpose of ministering to one another and together ministering to each other's communities.

We all know that world has become a global village with relatively easy access to it's most remote corners.  This is one reason why lay people are desiring to be involved in hands-on foreign mission activities.

To be effective, and to avoid common pitfalls as one engages in cross-cultural ministry, lay people need comprehensive training, professional guidance, constant support and a vehicle that provides opportunity for personal involvement.

  Testimonial

"Some may ask why we keep going back to Guatemala over a period of 20 years.  Our answer is found in the friendship, fellowship and unity enjoyed among our Mayan brothers and sisters in our sister church there.  We go to express our love by encouraging and sharing our material and spiritual blessings, but then return greatly encouraged and motivated ourselves by these fellow believers in our sister church.  We can never give more then we receive and we always return with abundance."
