SWN provides an initial interface between enquirers and agencies where serious enquirers can easily investigate a wide range of mission opportunities. SWN is a mission "one stop shop" where people who are serious about mission but uncertain about a destination or ministry opportunities can use the site for research because they understand that information from many diverse agencies is available in one place to help them make decisions.

Second Wind Network offers a pathway for people to enter the missions enterprise with its wide array of choices. Our commitment is to bring people to the front door of sending organisations. (We ourselves are not a sending agency. Please refer to our mission statement.) Partner organisations must themselves do whatever else is required to share their own vision and enlist these enquirers as labourers for His harvest.

We hope to see each enquirer find the 'best fit' for their calling, skills, and vision, and the sending agencies discover the people who will fit best with their organisation's vision and operations.

How do we do this?

1. Through an on-line Mission Matching software program
   
   
2. By presenting Second Wind Forums
   
   
3. By listing Top Needs of partner agencies
   
   
4. By providing web based information

How can an Agency participate in this initiative?

By partnering with us.

There are three categories of partnership with SWN:

1. Full Partners (for agencies wanting to participate in the full range of SWN initiatives.)
   
   
2. Associate Partners (designed for smaller agencies that are interested in participating in a limited way but do not want to participate in the Mission Matching Service.)
   
   
3. Limited Partners (designed for agencies that want enquirers to be able to see how they match but do not want to mine the database themselves.)

The Second Wind Matching service is based on software developed by the Finishers Project (USA) and has been completely Australianised. If you would like to view the way it works, you can see our test drive section by clicking on the link above.

Take a look at the Statistics page to see a wide range of statistical information about the enquirers who have already entered their profiles in the Mission Matching Service database.

Visit our " Top Needs" section to see how this works.

If you decide to become a partner with Second Wind you will be able to enter the five top needs of your organisation online and edit them as often as you want. This section will show you how the users will view them.

For Agencies based Outside Australia

If your agency is based outside Australia and does not have an office here, Second Wind Network may be limited in what we can provide. Second Wind Network connects with Australian adults to consider options for service in missions. To have this audience consider opportunities for service, they expect to have some level of personal contact in the early stages of the process. As a practical matter, the connections must be made from Australia. This is still possible internationally electronically. We suggest you contact one of the other organisations listed below if appropriate .
