Our Ministries

From prayer and evangelism to leadership development, community transformation, and lots more, our ministries exist to make Christ known, raise disciples, empower leaders, and bring lasting hope to communities.

Faith in Action, Hope for the World

At Sojourners Missions International, we believe the Gospel transforms lives most deeply when it is lived out in both word and deed.

Our identity is rooted in prayer and expressed through action. Through nine strategic avenues of ministry, we proclaim Christ, make disciples, plant indigenous churches, equip leaders, meet tangible needs, and empower communities.

We serve across cultures and communities with a Spirit-led passion to reach people who have little or no access to the Gospel.

Our approach is simple:

Pray. Proclaim. Disciple. Serve. Multiply.

See the Mission in Action

Behind every ministry initiative is a story of people who prayed, people who went, people who gave, and communities whose lives were touched by the Gospel.

Missions should not be a department in the church but the Identity of the church.

You too can be Part of the Mission
