FORT MYERS, Fla., March 25, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ -- New International, a Fort Myers-based mission-sending agency, is excited to announce the 5th Annual Miles for Missions initiative, set for May 31, 2025. This global movement challenges participants to commit to miles—whether walking, running, biking, or other activities—while raising funds to support missionaries worldwide.
This year’s event places a special emphasis on prayer, with the introduction of the Miles for Missions Prayer Tree. Participants from around the world can dedicate their miles in prayer for missionaries, with submitted prayers symbolized as leaves on the tree. This initiative provides a unique opportunity for individuals, churches, and organizations to engage in both physical movement and spiritual support.
Supporters can sign up to participate, form teams, or donate at www.MilesforMissions.org.The success of Miles for Missions is made possible by the generosity of our sponsors. Gold Sponsors for this year’s event include Convivial Life, Sanibel Captiva Community Bank, and River Hills Christian Church. Their partnership helps equip missionaries with essential resources to thrive on the field.
New International’s CEO, Jeff Metzger, shared his excitement for the milestone year, stating: "As an organization, we strive to be innovative in our approach to ministry. Miles for Missions is not just about raising funds—it’s about uniting people in action and prayer to support those sharing the message of Jesus globally. We are incredibly grateful for our sponsors and participants who make this movement possible, and we’re excited to see how God works through this year’s campaign."
