Mountain Movers International

Since 2000

About Mountain Movers

Founded in 2000, Mountain Movers International is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that serves as a bridge between needs and resources through a community of partnerships.

What we believe

Mountain Movers helps individuals to discern what calling God has uniquely equipped them to do and partners with them to excel in that calling. We believe every believer has been given gifts, passions, and resources meant to be put to work for God — and that the church moves mountains when they are.

How we work

MMI serves as a bridge between needs and resources. We identify faithful workers already serving in hard places, connect them with the prayer, funding, and expertise they need, and stay alongside them for the long haul. Our work has spanned discipleship, domestic ministry partnerships, and international fields across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas.

Our story

  1. 2000

    Founded in Carrollton, Texas

    Wayne Hamit founds Mountain Movers International as a 501(c)(3) non-profit with a simple conviction: to serve as a bridge between needs and resources, helping people of faith discern their calling and put their gifts, passions, and finances to work for God.

  2. 2001–2008

    "We See Mountains Moving"

    MMI grows into a community of partnerships spanning individuals, congregations, and mission fields. The Spiritual Gifts Inventory helps thousands discover where God has gifted them, and international work takes root across Central Asia, India, Kenya, Nepal, the Middle East, Ukraine, Zimbabwe, and Latin America.

    Middle East Palestine · Israel

    Business-as-mission and support for believers in the Holy Land.

    MMI partnered with UpsideDown (Makloubeh) Ministries in Bethlehem, supporting missionaries and Palestinian Christians through business-as-mission work in one of the most challenging regions for the church.

    Africa Kenya · Zimbabwe

    Restoration, wells, farms, and economic development.

    From African restoration projects to water wells, farm management, and micro-lending for economic development, MMI’s African partnerships focused on sustainable transformation led by local believers.

    Asia & the Pacific India · Nepal · Philippines · Ukraine

    Orphanages, schools, and church partnerships.

    MMI supported orphanages, schools, and congregational partnerships across India, Nepal, the Philippines, and Ukraine — connecting stateside resources with faithful workers already on the ground.

    Latin America Peru · Mexico

    Missions across Peru and Mexico.

    Short-term teams and long-term partnerships served communities in Peru, Tijuana, and the Yucatán — building homes, supporting churches, and meeting practical needs.

    Domestic Partnerships United States

    Standing with ministries at home.

    MMI’s domestic partnerships included evangelism training (Bezeugen), housing ministry (Hearts for Homes), Christian literature distribution (TLC Books), disaster relief after Hurricane Katrina, and more — the same bridge-between-needs-and-resources model, applied at home.

  3. 2010–2014

    Empowering missionaries to excel in their calling

    With work in over 40 countries and more than 150 missionaries supported, MMI focuses on discipleship — Develop, Disciple, Duplicate — and on getting 100% of donations straight to the mission field.

    Discipleship

    Develop. Disciple. Duplicate.

    MMI’s discipleship model follows a simple pattern: Develop believers in their faith and gifts, Disciple them into maturity and mission, and Duplicate the process as they disciple others. Programs like Mission 365 called believers to live on mission every day of the year.

  4. 2015–present

    Spearheading attacks on the worst societal issues

    MMI takes on the hardest situations: rescuing victims of sex trafficking, running orphanages and schools, drilling water wells, managing farms, micro-lending for economic development, and establishing clinics and hospitals — standing with the persecuted church around the world.

    Central Asia Afghanistan

    Standing with the persecuted church in hard places.

    MMI’s work in Central Asia has included church planting among unreached peoples and supporting believers under persecution — congregations that endured through the region’s hardest seasons, including the aftermath of the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan.
