CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments

ARM's calling is to equip the local church to minister to the world in the power of the Holy Spirit. Within United Methodism, there are more than 33,000 local churches just within the United States - more than 40,000 globally. Our challenge is both in how to reach every one of them and how to develop the resources to equip them. Currently, ARM has some connection with 750 local churches within the United States. The majority of those churches have hosted at least one of our local church renewal events. But, we are not currently staffed in such a way to healthfully maintain, nurture and deepen those relationships so that we have an ongoing partnership in the renewal of the local church. We are in the initial stages of creating a long-term plan to readjust our staffing to meet those needs. That, of course, takes both financial and staffing resources. ARM has a 39 year history of faithfulness to God's call, a legacy of faithful leadership, and extraordinary potential to partner with the local church to see churches become the full expression of Christ to the world around them literally turning the world upside down for Christ as the early church did as described in Acts 2 and Acts 17.
