About the Mission Management Company
We believe that every church and situation is unique and that it’s important to clarify the attributes that make a church God’s masterpiece. Using our proprietary MMCo Score we take a data-driven approach with qualitative insights to understand each church to allow mission-aligned partners to support a church’s mission in the community.

What makes MMCo different
We believe…
…in mission-centered design, a church operating model that is built around a mission to love your neighborhood. A mission-centered church is the physical manifestation of God’s love for the neighborhood.
…in church partnership as a critical part of the process in which your church retains agency over your property and is responsible for renewing your mission, in contrast to closing it down and selling your property. Your church is best equipped to hear God’s call for you to your neighborhood.
…in the seven values of church mission: (1) Legacy/Mission to Community/Partnerships, (2) Long-term Financial Stability, (3) Property Ownership/Stewardship, (4) Immediate People Needs, (5) Long-term People Needs, (6) Sunday Morning Service, (7) Risk & Entrepreneurship. Decisions can be made quicker and with less conflict when values are prioritized and aligned across the church.
…in the seven Transformation Drivers that measure a church’s preparedness for alternative property uses: (1) Mission Clarity, (2) Organizational Capacity, (3) Decision Speed, (4) Partner Mindset, (5) Runway Length, (6) Expense Management (7) Income Diversification. This enables a church to focus on areas to increase its preparedness for new uses of its property.
…in God’s calling for a new church operating model, i.e., “new wine skin,” that will redefine how church property is used. This enables the church to better fulfill its mission to the neighborhood and community by seeking to understand the needs of the community that the church and its property can meet.
…that technology and data used responsibly is a transformative platform to assist churches in the creation of a new operating model centered around their mission, new uses of their property, organizational change, and an outward community-centered mindset. This creates the opportunity for churches to move at a pace necessary to resolve financial challenges that otherwise might lead to closure or an outright sale of property at below market prices.
…when empowered and transformed churches enter into successful relationships with Mission Adjacent Partners the community is energized. This greater impact in the community energizes the community by illustrating that the seemingly impossible is possible through collaboration.
