MMM Associates Programme<\/h3>\n

The term MMM Associate was derived in the very earliest years for the programme of Volunteer\u2019s in all their various forms within MMM Australia (as we now know it)<\/em>. The initial programme was established under the direction of John Walder, one of the original co-founders of MMM and a founding director.<\/p>\n

The original Associates programme was established within the first 4 years of MMM\u2019s establishment as a method of engaging identity and purpose for MMM Volunteers as they linked in with the vision and goals of a fledgling ministry. John Walder drew upon the experiences of his work on a similar programme at Wycliffe Bible Translators (Australia)<\/em>. It is significant to note that the Wycliffe Associates programme is still operating today albeit not in the original structure or format. With careful fine tuning over the years Wycliffe Associates have adapted with a changing culture to remain functional and relevant to a much advanced organisation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A world of opportunities is available<\/a> to MMM Associates to serve, to go, to see, and to do!<\/p>\n

Serving those who serve is the maxim for MMM as we seek to help Christian organisations across Australia and around the world with repairs, maintenance, and construction of their facilities. With over 40 years of missions experience MMM has worked on building projects for orphanages, schools, churches, missions organisations, and support agencies around the world.<\/p>\n

MMM Associates are the heart and soul of our Mission, volunteering in areas of service where your gifts and talents can make a real difference and where you can find a purpose and fulfilment in Christian mission whilst still being an active part of your local church.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
