About Us

Going By Giving

We support our missionaries through “grace giving”. Our philosophy of missions is mandated by the Bible. We believe that a missionary-evangelist’s purpose is to establish self-supporting, self-governing, and self-propagating churches. These newly established churches should also have a world-wide missionary philosophy.


If you have been sent out of a local church and would like to help in the cause of world evangelization you may contact us. Perhaps God would have us to partner together for His great work! 

ONLINE GIVING

WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT


We now offer the ability to give securely online! Whether you are a member paying your tithe, or just a friend wanting to support our ministry financially, doing so is now more convenient and safer than ever.
