Why Help Indigenous Ministries?

Primarily, because there is no one else who can take the gospel to unreached peoples as effectively as
they can. Many countries no longer allow American missionaries to work where as many as 90% of unevangelized people are living.

It is true that some Christians can still do "social work," but they must first sign an affidavit promising not to "propagate their religion" in a given country. Native ministries do not face such restrictions. They may be persecuted and face opposition from radicals, but they cannot be put out of their own countries for preaching the gospel.

We are grateful for the American missionaries who have gone out over the past 200 years and sowed the seeds of God's Word in many countries. The thousands of native pastors and missionaries who are now doing the work are the fruits of their labor. But the situation is completely different today.

Ministry Partner

As much as 90% of all pioneering  mission work is now being done by native ministries, but they need our help. In India, 75% of all people live on less than $1.00 a day. That's where we come into the picture. We help provide resources to raise up a new generation of healthy, educated believers who can impact their culture in a far deeper and wider ranging way than we ever could.

This is done through Children's Homes where the cast off and abandoned of society can learn what it means to have the hope of Christ in their life and a new beginning. It's accomplished by providing God's Word to everyone seeking the truth about God and the purpose of life. It's accomplished through prayer and providing pastors with the training to effectively witness to, and disciple new believers.

With your help, their work can be greatly multiplied. We only need to give them the tools, and by God's grace they will finish the job.

You can help by Donating Now to provide Bibles ($100 will buy 25 Bibles), complete the new Children's home, basic necessities of life for widows and lepers, bicycles for pastors ($125), or sponsor a child now for $30 a month which provides for food, medical care, education, housing, and the opportunity to hear the gospel.
