Global City Pastors
Discipleship isn't a moment. It's a movement.At Carlini Ministries, we have always believed that one obedient life can spark a movement—and that a single pastor, when equipped and empowered, can ignite revival across their church, their city, their nation, and even their world. This belief is the foundation of our newest global initiative: Global City Pastors.
As a pastor or church leader, you’ve probably received friendship requests from other pastors around the world—but you may not know who they are or how to verify their ministry. You might feel the desire to connect with, mentor, or support a pastor from another nation, yet you’re unsure how to research their background or establish trust. Global City Pastors bridges that gap by creating a safe, reliable, and meaningful network where authentic relationships and fruitful ministry partnerships can grow.
And let’s be clear—there is no expectation of financial investment in this relationship. This is not about sending money. This is about mentorship—pouring into another pastor with your wisdom, your prayers, your encouragement, and your experience in ministry. It’s about strengthening leaders so they can shepherd their own congregations more effectively.
What Is Global City Pastors?
Global City Pastors is a visionary discipleship and missions partnership initiative designed to:
-
Unite pastors from across the globe
-
Connect their congregations in meaningful relationships
-
Impact their communities with the power of the Gospel
Through carefully coordinated pastor-to-pastor relationships, monthly mentorship calls, and in-person mission trips, we are building a global network of spiritual leaders who are discipling churches and transforming nations—one relationship at a time.
The Mission
Equipping Pastors
Everything we do begins with discipleship. At Carlini Ministries, our mission is to equip pastors and leaders with sound biblical teaching, spiritual mentorship, and leadership training so they can stand strong in their calling. Global City Pastors provides pastors in developing nations with access to seasoned ministry leaders—like you—who will walk with them, pray with them, and pour into them through regular virtual meetings and relational support.
We don’t believe in one-time events—we believe in ongoing relationships. That’s why Global City Pastors is designed to be a 12-month commitment, with Carlini Ministries providing guidance, structure, and resources to help both pastors grow.
Empowering Churches
When pastors are strengthened, churches are empowered. As relationships develop, partner churches will begin to share encouragement, resources, testimonies, and spiritual gifts across cultural and national lines. From sermon preparation and leadership development to prayer and accountability, these partnerships cultivate a spirit of unity in the Body of Christ.
Your church will not only mentor a pastor—they will invest in an entire church community. As the local congregation is discipled and equipped, they begin to walk in healing, spiritual growth, and Gospel mission. The result is a church that is not just surviving, but thriving.
Influencing Communities
Discipled churches influence cities.
The impact of this initiative goes far beyond the four walls of the church. As these churches grow in strength and maturity, they become agents of change within their neighborhoods—reaching the lost, healing the broken, and preaching the Gospel to the poor.
We’ve already seen it happening. In Mexico, Honduras, Costa Rica, Uganda, Nigeria, Rwanda, and Cuba, pastors who have partnered with us testify that their churches are growing, their leadership is being developed, and their cities are beginning to feel the effects of the Gospel. This is what happens when churches rise up in unity—communities are transformed.
How It Works
A Practical Overview
01. You Say Yes
Your church commits to a 12-month partnership with a pastor in a developing nation.
02. Submit One-Time Fee
You submit a one-time fee of $1000 and agree to brief monthly update calls to Carlini Ministries, Inc.
03. Match with a Pastor
Carlini Ministries will carefully connect your church with a pastor based on language, cultural fit, and ministry needs.
04. Train & Equip
You’ll receive training on how to build and sustain a healthy mentoring relationship using monthly WhatsApp video calls or Zoom. We call it “Iron sharpens iron.”
05. Begin Mentoring
Through these monthly calls, you and your leaders will invest in the pastor and their team through prayer, teaching, encouragement, and mutual growth.
05. Go
Each year, your church will have the opportunity to send a team on a short-term mission trip to visit your partner pastor’s church—strengthening relationships, serving their ministry, and building a long-term connection.
This is More Than a Program
It’s a Movement
The early church didn’t grow through events—it grew through relationships and discipleship. That’s what Global City Pastors is all about.
This isn’t just about financial giving. It’s about Kingdom investment—offering your time, your wisdom, your experience, and your heart to raise up leaders across the world. It’s about saying, “I will walk with you, I will encourage you, and I will help you fulfill God’s calling on your life.”
Imagine pastors encouraged.
Churches empowered.
Communities transformed.
All because two churches—from opposite sides of the globe—decided to walk together.
