We ask for the nations as our inheritance (Psalm 2:8). For all our McAlpine Partners, that inheritance includes more than twenty nations on four continents.
what we do
We network with other organizations who invite us to serve and support their mission, whether domestic or international. For example, we work internationally with ASK Network, a prayer movement, in 25 nations. Domestically, we work with organizations like the C.S.Lewis Institute, teaching in their Fellows’ Program; with Church Planters, giving support and counsel; with pioneer ventures like Taneisha House reaching youth on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana.
How is it done?
It is achieved through local and national collaborative relationships, committed to long-term loyalty and unity; through on-site biblical teaching and pastoral training; through wise and achievable biblical problem-solving with pastoral and organizational leaders; through publications and learning resources. Such engagement with encouragement develops dependable and co-operative friendships. These produce measurable high-yield outcomes of increased outreach and influence, and build durable, reproducible strong personal and organizational spiritual foundations for future growth and productivity.

our organization

The Articles of Incorporation (Article 4) define the purpose of the organization as “exclusively religious, educational and charitable within the meaning of Section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code in 1986 as amended, including but not limited to supporting, encouraging, teaching, training and collaborating with churches, Christian ministries and other non-profit organizations around the world to be more effective in their ministry work.” The organization’s governance is its Board of Directors to whom Stuart and Celia McAlpine are responsible and accountable in all matters pertaining to the organization’s operation.
A note on Fundraising
Donations are the only means of supply and support to the ministry. McAlpine Partners does not take any honoraria or travel expenses for its international projects and missions simply because the church in most nations is both poor and presecuted. In fact, as well as covering all its costs to serve, McAlpine Partners donates to the work in the nations visited.
