LEAST REACHED
AS PRESENTED WITHIN THE CITYVISION REPORT BY JOHN MAYER, THERE ARE OVER 100 DIFFERENT NATIONS REPRESENTED IN MINNESOTA, AND THESE NATIONS MAKE UP OVER 1 MILLION FIRST AND SECOND GENERATION INDIVIDUALS. OUT OF THIS 1 MILLION, 90% DO NOT HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST. BETWEEN THE 3,500 TIBETANS AND THE 10,000 BOSNIANS WITHOUT A SINGLE KNOWN FOLLOWER OF CHRIST TO THE 84,500 SOMALIS WITH ONLY 40 KNOWN BELIEVERS, THE DIASPORA HAVE MADE THEIR HOME WITHIN THE TWIN CITIES. THIS TC DMM NETWORK VALUES AND PRIORITIZES THESE LEAST REACHED PEOPLES.
PRACTITIONERS
AS ONE LEADS AND COACHES OTHERS, THIS NETWORK IS COMMITTED TO PERSONALLY PRACTICING THE PRINCIPLES AND STRATEGIES HE OR SHE TEACHES. ONE MUST BE A DISCIPLE TO MAKE DISCIPLES.
TEAMS
INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ONLY ON INDIVIDUALS, THIS NETWORK PRIORITIZES WORKING TOGETHER TO LAUNCH, TRAIN, COACH, AND MENTOR TEAMS AND MISSIONAL COMMUNITIES.
