Mission Training International

Mission Training International is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that began in the hearts of Phil Armstrong, R.E. Thompson, and Clyde Taylor and was incorporated as Missionary Internship in Michigan in 1954. The ministry focused on preparing applicants for ministry work in new cultures. The goal was to introduce them to skills that would help produce effectiveness, endurance, and personal vitality as they prepared to serve cross-culturally.

Today, MTI partners with more than 100 agencies and has served over 50,000 cross-cultural workers. We continue to focus on preparing and caring for individuals, couples, and families for healthy cross-cultural service. We are thankful for the role that we have in carrying the Gospel around the world and excited to serve those the Lord brings to us in the future!
