- Develop standards of excellence without causing new complicated levels of bureaucracy that kill innovation.
C1 Churches
C1 churches are the driving force behind church driven international missions. A C1 Church is the "lead" church in any given international missions project. This has no relation to the size of a church.
Below is a list of current projects and their C1 church. Please note that "Commitment Level" stands for the level of experience and maturity for individuals looking to participate in a project. This can relate to spiritual maturity, travel experience, or comfort level with new or uncomfortable experiences such as new foods, cultures, and languages.
