Advancing Native Missions serves as a bridge between individuals and churches and fruitful local ministries and missionaries around the world. Instead of sending missionaries abroad, we help people invest in local ministries who are doing God's work among their own people. We are blessed to help our fellow Christians come beside 345 ministries in 97 different countries. Each of these ministries is bringing the life-changing love and message of salvation of Jesus to people in their own countries, regions, and communities who've never received it.
