Mission America Coalition

What Mission America Coalition does

Mission America Coalition (MAC) is a private, donation-funded nonprofit coalition founded in 1993 and headquartered in Palm Desert, California. It functions as a facilitation and convening body for Christian evangelism in the United States, working to coordinate denominational leaders, national ministries, and city-reaching movements rather than delivering direct ministry services. Its stated constituency includes leaders from 81 denominations, over 400 ministries, dozens of ministry networks, and city-reaching efforts spanning at least 21 cities in the U.S. with global outreach via MAC Global Connections.

MAC's product surface is programmatic rather than technological. Core offerings include the Loving Our Communities to Christ (LC2C) framework — a prayer-care-share mobilization methodology now in its 3.0 version with podcast clinics and downloadable resources — the LOVE2020 pray-care-share lifestyle initiative, the Youth Transition Network for youth-to-college retention, and 30+ Ministry Networks spanning verticals such as Adoption, Apologetics, Arts, Prison Ministry, Internet Evangelism, and Multicultural outreach. Supporting channels include a free monthly Evangelism Connection newsletter, a Twitter feed (@MakeLoveYourAim), an LC2C podcast series, annual meetings, and a collaborative online calendar. The organization explicitly has no app, no API, and no proprietary technology stack.

The business model is community-led donation funding. MAC is a charter member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA), contributions are tax-deductible, and National Facilitators raise their own personal and ministry support. Sources of organizational revenue are not publicly disclosed; a $25,000 matching-gift solicitation is documented as a significant fundraising event. Distribution occurs through the coalition network itself — there is no direct sales force or paid customer acquisition channel.
