SEND International is a global Christian missions organization operating within the nonprofit sector, based in Farmington, Michigan. It traces its origins to a post-World War II effort by former enlisted soldiers who sought to share the gospel in Japan and the Philippines. Today, the organization serves 27 countries across Asia, Eurasia, Europe, and North America, focusing on mobilizing believers and partnering with local churches to send missionaries who can establish reproducing churches and sustain long-term impact. The approach emphasizes cross-cultural ministry and collaboration with churches to enhance mission effectiveness. In 2017, SEND International appointed Atwell as US director, making her the first woman to hold that position. The organization is characterized as a mid-sized nonprofit that supports cross-cultural ministry and church-based mission deployment.
