Planting Churches
Supporting Ministries
Sending Missionaries
Our ultimate goal is that everyone in the 10/40 window has
the opportunity to hear and respond to the hope found in Christ alone.
We carry this out by focusing on 3 different methods:
Planting Churches, Supporting Ministries, and Sending Missionaries
Planting Churches
“The church planter’s ultimate objective is nothing less than winning the whole world for Christ.” – Ed Stetzer
We work with missionaries and churches in the 10/40 window to begin new churches throughout the world. Sometimes this looks like the first church in a new city or village. Other times it looks like connecting small house churches with one another into one local church of believers.
Indigenous church planters are equipped through our training seminars and strategic planning sessions. These church planters are also provided with the materials needed to disciple their members and equip future leaders. The contriubtions of our generous donor partners provide the funds needed for these churches to pay their pastors, meet regularly, and perform outreaches.
Church planting has been crucial in spreading the reach of Christianity since it began. If you would like to partner with us to plant churches in the 10/40 window, donate here.
Supporting Ministries
“Contribute to the needs of the saints…” – Romans 12:13
We help establish new indigenous ministries and work with indigenous ministries that have already been established in the 10/40 window to meet the needs of the people in their communities. Each ministry is unique to the needs of that community. Some ministries assist the poor. Others bring hope and comfort to those that their societies have deemed undesirable. Whatever the need may be, these ministries serve their communities for the sake of spreading the Gospel.
Your donations make it possible for us to resources ministries serving and providing aid to their communities for the sake of spreading the gospel. We suport ministries training and preparing future church planters. We work with ministries sending leaders to start Bible study groups throughout their communities.
Oftentimes, the only way someone will hear about Christ is through a ministry that directly impacts their lives. As these ministries grow, they will continue to need support. If you would like to support ministries in the 10/40 window that bring hope, just click this link.
Sending Missionaries
“How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent?” – Romans 10:14-15
We are all missionaries. We are all called to spread the Gospel to those around us. But some choose to leave their homes to spread this hope among the nations. We partner with missionaries in the field to help them in their endeavors to tell the world about Jesus. We have also sent missionaries into the field to begin their calling.
Through church partnerships, we send missionaries to provide oversight and support to indigenous churches. We lead teams from local churches on short-term mission trips to the 10/40 Window. The purpose of these trips is to develop and facilitate long term relationships between churches in the West with churches in the East.
Missionaries have been on the frontlines serving and laboring since Jesus first told his disciples to go into all nations. We believe that all Christians are to either go and serve alongside them or to help send them in their labors. If you have interest in joining them in the mission, contact us at info@1040hope.org. Otherwise, we always encourage believers to support our brothers and sisters who have left their homes to bring hope to the world.
