This Year's MissionsFest Giving Project

Empowering our Global and Local partners in strategic ways.

Our “above & beyond” Giving Project will expand programs for youth and the vulnerable, offer hope for exploited women, provide skill training for the marginalized, equip indigenous pastors, extend God’s Word in remote places, and much more.

As God works “through us”, hope and opportunity are extended to people with physical and spiritual needs throughout Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America—and here in our own community.

WBC’s ambassadors are extending the message and ministry of Christ in over 50 nations. Fueled by your prayers and gifts, the ripple effect is remarkable!

Churches are being planted; children and youth are being transformed through education, sports, and spiritual mentoring; the under-resourced are finding hope in Jesus; and disciples and Christian leaders are being multiplied! To God be the glory!
