Pioneers appreciates the extensive resourcing, training and networking opportunities afforded through MI membership. We benefit in various ways – for example from financial assistance, including income-tax exemption on overseas missionary salaries on the basis of our membership.
The fellowship and counsel of globally-aware, mission-minded MI partners is a rich blessing. Our collaborative efforts help us achieve more to the glory of God and the lasting joy of peoples in so many places.

MAF Australia
MAF Australia, as a mission organisation, is proud to be a member of Missions Interlink. As members we receive numerous professional benefits including the ability to advertise vacancies on the MissionSeek website as well as sending our candidates for mission to Transition Training and our retiring staff to the Mission Interlink Reentry Retreat. We also enjoy participating in Mission Interlink’s mobilisation events around Australian including ReachOut in NSW, Activate in Victoria and MissionMatters in Qld. Being able to access professional development, resources and support for our staff through Mission Interlink’s conferences and network is also a professional benefit for our organisation. We thank Missions Interlink for everything they do for mission organisations such as MAF, around Australia.
Elena Ciobo
Gateway Baptist Church
Embarking on a new career as a Mission’s Development Pastor at Gateway Baptist this year, I have found it extremely helpful and encouraging to join the MI network. Not only do I get to connect with other like minded people working in the local church arena, but I get to discuss missions and the great commission – something very much on the heart of God.
Ian Bongers
One Mission Society Australia
As a smaller organisation, our membership with Missions Interlink is vital. Through MI we receive a great deal of advice in areas of financial and legal regulation as well as development and missionary care training. We are very grateful for MI and all the support it gives.
