Communication
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Today there are over 7,000 unreached people worldwide that has no witness for Christ among them. Christian Aid Mission seeks to establish a witness for Christ in every nation by assisting indigenous ministries to reach their areas with the gospel.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Evangelism and Discipleship
Building Christ's church throughout the world is our top priority. We do this by assisting indigenous ministries with the resources they need to reach the world's last remaining unreached people groups with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Community Engagement
Christian Aid Mission helps local believers be salt and light to a dark world through projects that benefit entire communities. For example, in poverty stricken areas where illiteracy is high, indigenous missionaries open schools. They help pull women out of prostitution by teaching them a vocational skill such as sewing.
Compassion Projects
Following the example of our Savior, who met people's physical needs along with their spiritual needs, we provide help to those who are needy and suffering.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We seek to establish a witness for Christ in every nation. By assisting indigenous missionaries, that equips them to lead first generations of believers to Christ in their own language groups. The opportunity to make a significant impact in the world for Christ has never been greater.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Building Christ's church throughout the world is our top priority. We do this by assisting indigenous ministries with the resources they need to spread the gospel, transform communities through community engagement projects. and share practical aid with the poor and needy.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have a network of over 400 indigenous ministries. Each indigenous ministry we assist is evaluated to verify their faith, financial integrity and fruitfulness. We help them sustain and grow their work by making their needs known to believers in developed nations.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Christian Aid mission has assisted thousands of indigenous ministries to share the gospel with unreached poeple groups in lands of poverty, where Christians are a persecuted minority, and where foreign missionaries are not allowed to go.
