Equipping Churches to Send Faithfully
Many churches want to send well, but don’t know where to start or how to grow what’s already begun. That’s where Upstream comes in. We exist to equip churches—not replace them—as the primary vehicle of sending in God’s global mission.
We get it—navigating the waters of global missions is really hard. We’re your guide “upstream”: offering practical tools, gospel-centered resources, and time-tested frameworks so your church can identify, equip, send, support, and receive back missionaries with deep impact.
For over 15 years, we’ve walked alongside hundreds of churches around the world—helping them move from uncertainty to intentionality. Whether you’re forming your first short-term trip or fine-tuning a thriving sending pipeline, we’re here to help you send well.
Content to Equip You
We offer biblical and practical resources to strengthen your church’s missions engagement. Whether you're looking for bite-sized insight or in-depth tools, we’ve curated content to equip you at every step.
Community to Walk With You
As your guide to church-centered missions, we provide relational services rooted in partnership and shared experience to help you take the next faithful step. Because true transformation doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in community.
