Our Focus
A Local Presence
The RMI (Rural Ministry Inititive) encourages those in ministry now and inspires a future generation of pastors and ministry leaders with a vision of thriving local ministry
A Regional Hub
The RMI is a regional hub for relationships and resources for pastors, ministry leaders, students, and faculty
Pastors and Ministry Leaders
Connect to other pastors, find ministry resources, and engage with students and faculty who are excited by the local church.
Students
Join a small, local church to gain discipleship and leadership experience. Learn more about opportunities for Christian service-learning and practicums  
The Rural Ministry Initiative is attentive to the contextual needs of pastors and ministry leaders in a six-county area in East-Central Indiana, and the unique opportunities that partnership with Taylor University offers.
