International Relief & Development

Sometimes it feels like we're too far removed to really make a difference in the lives of people in distant countries. But that's why partnering with these organizations is so important—when we support them, they can provide tangible support to those in need, all around the world! Many of these ministries also work with governing authorities to pass policies and laws that will continue to better the lives of those they support.

No one knows the needs of a community better than those who call that community home! These ministries were formed by those who work, live, raise families, and worship in the neighborhoods they serve. They're perfectly positioned to care about the unique needs of the community, advocating from a place of mutual concern and devotion to their city.

Equip Churches, Pastors, and Ministries Around the World

One of the greatest ways to affect change in the world is to strengthen the ministry of the church! When pastors, churches, and local ministries are equipped with robust theological training and resources, they are better able to share God's love with those in their care. If you want to see the expansion of God's kingdom, support the church by giving to these organizations.
