Our mission is to connect the church in the West with the "church" in West Asia. The "work" started in 1994 though one man from West Asia coming to know Christ. There are now an estimated 4 million believers under our ministry in this region. Our brothers and sisters in West Asia suffer many hardships through persecution, war, and lack of food and medication. Yet, they continue to lay down their lives for each other, and for their neighbor. Our organization has established prayer centers and medical clinics (bombed-out buildings) throughout the region. These places are a safe haven for those fleeing from conflict, or having lost loved ones though war. It is at these centers and clinics where the love of Christ is constantly on display to the believer and the unbeliever alike. Along with supplying much needed food, medication and basic hygienic products, we have been able to provide believers with the Bible in their own language. This is a very delicate work, as you can imagine, in this region of the world.
Although there is extreme persecution, war, and poverty; the church continues to grow. This growth takes place though building relationship with one another. It is normal that our brothers and sisters lay down their lives for another in this region. If a brother or sister is in need, they give to each other whatever they have. And discipleship is key. This happens in small groups or one-on-one. We have also been able to establish a few schools in the region where children can receive an education and also Bible teaching.
Our brothers and sisters in West Asia are not forgotten. We extend an invitation to you. To partner with us, as we continue to provide the written Word to believers across this region and look to help them with their basic needs (Bibles/food/medication).

If the Foundation does not use the donation in the way the donor prefers, the Foundation will not return the donation to the donor.
