Transcript of In Motion Ministries March 2012 Newsletter
Spring is in the Air
Spring is in the air: I say this both literally and figuratively. It is
already March and spring is in the air (most days, LOL) in Colo-
rado. But we also feel that spring is in the air at In Motion Minis-
tries. Over the past year we have seen tremendous growth in sev-
eral key areas at IMM, such as:
Staff Member Training – Cindy Kinoshita, after a year of
training, is now fully running our short-term mission trip
planning department.
Short-term Mission Team Leaders – we have seen a tremen-
dous growth in the number of leaders on our team and they
are quickly moving through their training.

Connections – we are enjoying our connections with other
ministries as we work together in the gospel. We are working
with one group in particular that I believe will be a huge part-
nership over time. And, that is just one of the many great min-
istries we are working with. I will not name names, because I
would likely leave someone out.
Growth – IMM will break two key barriers in 2012; we will send
more than 10 mission teams to the field and we will send more
than 150 team members – both breaking our records for a sin-
gle year. And with the connections mentioned above, we will
do even more in 2013 and beyond.
Operation One Billion – we currently have four year-long bible
school units in hand which we will place on the mission field
in 2012. These bible schools will impact thousands of people
and have a huge impact in years to come.
Partnerships – We had a company come along side IMM last
year to help us get our message out by helping us bring our
marketing efforts up to speed with current technology. We are
beginning to see the fruit of these efforts. And, as of last
month, we are working on a partnership agreement with a
ministry that will allow us to offer them our strength in short-
term mission trip planning expertise. They in turn will offer us
their marketing and networking expertise. It should be an
amazing joint venture.
Your MONEY – I am pleased to be able to report to you that
when you give to IMM you are giving to the gospel, to mis-
sions work! We are not building big expensive buildings or
paying high salaries, rather 85% of all money given to IMM
goes directly into missions work. Our building is provided to
us by a generous donor at $1 per year. Our staff donate hun-
dreds of hours in labor per year and, for the most part, raise
their own financial support.
