Advancing Native Missions

ANM exists so that all people everywhere will hear the story of Jesus. To do this, we encourage, equip, and advocate for strategic and fruitful local ministries around the world who are introducing the gospel of Jesus to unevangelized and unreached people where they live.

In Matthew 24:14, Jesus made a promise to His people — “This gospel of the kingdom will be preached among all nations.” We believe this is true and that every Christian has a part to play in the mission of taking the gospel to all nations. This is what keeps us moving forward until our vision is fulfilled.

The key to our success is our native missions strategy. Instead of sending American missionaries to other countries, we create partnerships between Christians in the U.S. and native Christian workers serving in their own countries, because we believe in local leadership, relational ministry, long-term impact, sustainable growth, economical investment, and gospel-centered outreach.

Donations to ANM support native Christian workers who are already accustomed to the languages, cultures, and living standards where they live, so donors can accomplish more with less while participating in the global body of Christ.

Since 1992, ANM has developed a network of native partners in more than 100 countries, with a total of more than 13,500 local workers sharing the Gospel among those who have the least access to the message of Jesus.

Our generous donor community of thousands of individuals and hundreds of local churches support this work and help launch new initiatives where the needs are greatest.

In 2020, ANM donors provided $6,022,498 to fund Gospel outreach, planted 1,561 churches, engaged 884 unreached people groups with the Gospel, and sustained ministry work in more than 100 countries, all through our network of 13,500 native Christian workers.
