Oasis International Ltd.

10 Year Goal: Oasis will become the first publisher capable of placing a book or Bible in every Christian reader's hand in Africa to satisfy its thirst for God's Word

Grow discipleship through publishing African voices
We engage Africa’s most influential, most relevant, and best communicators for the sake of the Gospel.
We create contextual content that meets the specific needs of Africa, has the power to transform individuals and societies, and gives the church in Africa a global voice.
We cultivate local and global partnerships in order to publish and distribute high-quality books and Bibles.

For 30 years, Oasis has been distributing Bibles and Christian books for discipleship in Africa. The differentiator
through this entire time is Oasis’s belief that business needs to play a core role to:
1. Shift from giving books and Bibles away to an economically viable network of book distribution
2. Become a fully pan-African, Christian publisher to achieve economies of scale
3. Have multiple warehouses in place to distribute literature throughout Africa
4. Grow a viable publishing model that creates local jobs to equip the church for discipleship

The second core distinctive is working from the premise that the literate Christian majority in Africa are primarily
reading in English, French, and Portuguese.

Most recently, Oasis has added a third distinctive from our experience in Africa over the last decade: full spiritual
transformation requires contextualized application to local cultures and contexts.

Thousands of organizations from the well-funded child sponsorship NGO to a rural Bible school with
25 students do better discipleship with access to world-class books and Bibles.

Oasis has invested to create a long-term solution to resource the church in Africa. The best hope to meet the
enormity of the crisis is a pan-African infrastructure that serves the needs of the market.

Maximum impact requires world-class contextual resources. Oasis is the first organization to have made the
investment needed to achieve financial sustainability in Africa.

Over the last decade Oasis has invested more in creating a sustainable publishing and distribution model
for discipleship in Africa than any other organization.
