CONNECTING CHRISTIANS & HELPING MINISTRIES IMPACT THE KINGDOM
Since 2013, God has been using Amplify Mission Network (Formerly The Barnabas Group MN) to make a powerful impact on ministries and non-profits locally and around the world. As a group, we come together six times a year to hear from organizations, brainstorm ideas and make connections to address their business challenges. Partners have the option to join follow-up teams to provide more in-depth support for each ministry.
Are you ready to turn up your impact by sharing your gifts? Become a partner.
Mission in Action: Amplify Mission Network shares their story on working together as partners in ministry.
PARTNERS
Our Partners are Christian professionals looking to engage their time and gifts, serving emerging ministries and organizations in need of strategic support to impact the kingdom of God. Partners experience connection and collaboration with other Partners as well as building lasting relationships with our ministry leaders. All are welcome as Partners with Amplify Mission Network.
MINISTRIES & ORGANIZATIONS
Presenting Ministries are Christian organizations based in Minnesota, representing an emerging ministry in need of strategic support and able to articulate a clear challenge or opportunity facing their ministry to which Partners can contribute their time, talents and connections. Through relationships with our Partners, ministries are able to overcome obstacles and grow in ways they never before imagined.

As a recent participant in Amplify Mission Network, I was immediately struck by the power of bringing together people with a variety of backgrounds and strengths to advise, provoke and guide early stage ministries struggling with a problem they are currently facing. In a short time, the struggling ministry receives expert counsel that is both practical and useful immediately. It’s so apparent to me that everyone involved, whether giving or receiving advice, desires to see God’s Kingdom grow. This collaboration works. I’m delighted to be a part of it.

Time and money are both precious. As an investor, Amplify Mission Network has done a nice job combining the two on my behalf. I benefit from the vetting done by the executive team for two local ministries that present at each bi-monthly meeting. As a result, I am introduced to a couple ministries I would not have been exposed to otherwise, am able to discuss their issue(s) and provide some feedback and as led, decide if there is a good fit with my gifts to invest and partner with them further. I consider it a win/win for all involved.

We were not made to go it alone. We were made to be in community, loving and encouraging and supporting each other. Amplify Mission Network does just that with emerging ministries in our area, organizations that are heeding God’s call to serve pressing needs not otherwise met. Each of the participating ministries are already blessing people in our community, and Amplify Mission Network helps them take the next steps in their growth. We walk alongside each of these ministries, providing resources and expertise these programs may not easily access. This is a way for each of us to share our modest gifts and expertise to glorify our God in ways none of could achieve in our own. Join us.

Amplify Mission Network understands that running a ministry is a difficult calling and that no one can be experts at all things. After presenting our vision and challenges to the group, we were surrounded with constructive and supportive comments, connected to new networking resources, and encouraged to move ahead with new insight. Even today, we continue to be connected to new and helpful ministries that complement the work that we do. I love seeing individuals with a variety of business, ministry, and career expertise become excited about how their skills can be used in partnership for God’s purposes.

You are not alone. In our work, the #1 indicator of child abuse is parents living in social isolation. We like to say that Safe Families provides extended “family-like” support to those families in crisis. As a brand new non profit in town, there were times when we were discouraged. Amplify Mission Network has been that “family” to us when we needed the extra encouragement or boost to take the next steps in growing our impact in the community. They prayed for our work, helped us build our board and gave a timely financial gift. Together is better. We appreciate you!

For me, Amplify Mission Network has provided an opportunity to see how God is working through local non-profits, allowing me to be a conduit of connections, ideas and use my work experience to offer ideas and make introductions. Seeing the creativity and passion of these ministries is always humbling and encouraging at the same time.

“Amplify Mission Network (formerly The Barnabas Group MN) offered Exodus Lending a chance to present our ministry and receive suggestions and input from caring experts in the broader community. Partners walked us through the entire process; from the initial conversation through inviting us to one of their events with other presenting ministries in order to see how it works, to help planning our presentation, welcoming us to the event and finally facilitating the “deeper dive” to tackle those issues that keep us up at night with a smaller group. It was such a gift to have a fresh examination of our program by caring and talented community partners. We are grateful and humbled by the support. Thank you!”
