Mission

In January 1990, Mission of Mercy merged with Bethesda Ministries, Colorado Springs, Colorado. As a division of Bethesda Ministries, Mission of Mercy's ministry focus began to grow. Today Mission of Mercy is working in 20 nations of the world, providing help and hope to more than 37,000 children through child sponsorship. We equip children in developing nations to reach their God-given potential by creating opportunities for spiritual, physical, social, mental and emotional development. We are a Christian child sponsorship ministry helping to meet the physical and spiritual needs of hurting people in poverty-stricken areas of the world. Through our ministry programs, children receive food, education, medical aid and hope in Jesus Christ.
