Missions Development International

MDI provides ministry leaders with high-caliber mentoring and innovative content to unleash their God-given potential.

Before the doors open, our mentors gather to pray.

They pray for the ministry leaders we serve, the conversations that will take place, and the lives that will be impacted through mentoring.

Prayer is at the heart of all we do.

This 250th Fourth of July, we’re especially grateful for the freedom we share and the lives that have been shaped through sacrifice and service.

We don’t take for granted the opportunity to live in community and to gather with loved ones.

Wishing you a safe and meaningful 4th!

Steve Lorenz and Marti Scudder recently traveled to Uganda, spending time mentoring and coaching leaders at Amazima Ministries and connecting with other local organizations. Their focus was on encouraging leaders, providing guidance, and discerning next steps for impact.

Marti recently had a great trip to Spain with Radooga Ministries, connecting with Board leaders and ministry partners. Their time was filled with great conversations, prayer, and a look at the impact of Radobot clubs on children in Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees in Spain.

Our Annual Banquet was filled with celebration, connection, and inspiration. A standout moment was our "Mentor at a Table" portion of the evening, where each guest experienced the heart of MDI through conversations with our Mentors. What a joy to celebrate their impact together!

One of the highlights of MDI's Annual Event was presenting the 2025 Founder’s Award to Troy Waugh. For more than a decade, Troy has poured his wisdom and leadership into MDI — developing tools, guiding strategy, and championing our mission. His impact has been immeasurable to MDI

At MDI's Annual Event, we had the joy of honoring two incredible leaders, Woody Camp and Alisa Malone, for serving as MDI mentors for 10 years. Their dedication and heart for ministry leaders have impacted many lives, and we are so grateful for their partnership in this mission.
