Our Board of Directors
The IGO Board of Directors is comprised of a
cross-section of Christian men and women — the professional person, the
homemaker, the business owner, the retired — who have their own stake in
worldwide missions. The Lord has brought together a group of
down-to-earth people with a God/World perspective. Their blend of
abilities and grace set the tone from its inception. IGO
is dedicated to keep that distinctive even as missionary opportunities
increase.
The board, serving without
compensation, is responsible for establishing broad corporate policy.
They are an active body, meeting at least once each year. In
addition, each member serves on one of three Standing Committees
(corporate finance, mission matters or donor relations). Our
Executive Committee administers business matters on a day-to-day basis.
Each person serving in
some administrative role or strategic ministry must abide by our statement
of faith. The statement of faith is historically fundamental, thoroughly
conservative and unashamedly evangelical. All must comply with our
overall objective, that of proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the
end that people are converted and discipled in the Scriptures.
