International Missions

Mission to the World (MTW) is the global mission sending agency of the Presbyterian Church in America. MTW is committed to church planting: the establishment, growth, and maturity of the church. Practically speaking, all of our serving opportunities flow into, rest within, or flow out of the church.

For example, establishing a new church might require people who can teach national leaders, or evangelize through sports ministry, or provide a local medical clinic. These ways of serving can reach and equip future leaders and build connections in the community. Serving within the church would be church planters, assistant pastors, disciplers, teachers, and others who directly support the growth and maturity of the church. Flowing out of a healthy, growing church will be ministries that meet the needs of the community and continue to draw others to the gospel message, such as teaching English, caring for orphans, art and music outreach, or serving refugees.

If a missionary's description says they are an MTW missionary, you can search for them on the MTW site and once found, you will have the option of contacting them directly, putting money into their MTW account, or some even have newsletters you can sign up to receive a copy of.

The Center for Church Planting (CPI) in Northern Mexico is headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico. It is an initiative sponsored by Mission to the World (MTW) North America.

The Center for Church Planting (CPI) in Northern Mexico is the instrument for recruiting, evaluating, training and mentoring church planters as well as for developing the vision to plant churches in capital cities where the gospel needs to be shared.

In order for CPI to achieve success in Mexican cities like Monterrey, Saltillo, Cd. Victoria, Durango and San Fernando, they have partnerships with ministries such as Redeemer City to City, Mission to the World in Mexico, Ministry Peacemakers, Reformed Theological Seminary, Third Millennium, World Reformed Fellowship, 8 Presbyterian churches in Mexico and around 25 PCA churches in the United States.

Redeemer City to City (CTC) is a leadership development organization founded by Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church. CTC Latin America is the group Bethel has the closest ties to since it often supports new church plants in Mexico.

City to City (CTC) prayerfully recruits, trains, coaches and resources leaders who start new churches and church networks in global cities.

CTC's main role is to train and coach entrepreneurial pastors to start self-replicating, biblically-faithful churches that reach city dwellers. This involves working directly with local leaders as well as networks, denominations and other agencies involved in church planting and leadership development.

City to City Latin America believes in the need for more gospel-centered churches throughout Latin America. Their goal is to be a network that raises up local church planters from diverse urban cultures, capable of understanding their environment and applying the gospel effectively.
