As Christians, one of the most important ways we share our faith is in how we respond to the needs around us.

Working with and through the Regional Coordinators of the Church of God for the African continent, the Africa Mission Fund enables the coordinators to walk alongside African national churches and congregations of the Church of God to provide timely funding for many types of needs. Our faithful giving enables the Africa Mission Regional Coordinators to meet immediate needs, support developing ministry strategies, and provide tangible encouragement to struggling pastors and projects across Africa. For example, and among other ways our support has been used, in the past year our giving has assisted two pastors and their congregations in Burundi who had lost everything in a flood.
Over 66% of Hondurans live in poverty. Rural Honduran communities often lack a sense of belonging, security, opportunity, and hope. This drives many to leave their families and communities. Heart to Honduras sees Hondurans differently. They see the Honduran people as capable and competent and the local communities as places with great gifts and resources yet untapped. Their model is sustainable, holistic, asset-based development work. This enables the wholistic, life-changing message of Jesus to be both heard and experienced, and aids local Kingdom collaborators in learning ways to work hand in hand to transform their world.
Our congregation has been actively supporting the community of Los Pinos in the mountains surrounding Lake Yojoa. This includes training and empowerment of community leaders, equipping them to support the spiritual, emotional, intellectual, and physical needs of the women, men, and children of the village. Because of our support, last year they were able to clear and prepare a space in the community for a soccer field, which now serves as a safe gathering place for young people and families.
We see rural Honduran communities as a place to truly belong.

It is a ministry extension of the local congregation in the village or city. It is designed to provide long-term relationship between the church members and the children and their families, rather than between an organization and a child. It is a holistic approach in which we want to impact a child's life over an extended period of time. Four core needs are identified as the focus of partnership: Christian nurture, nutrition, education, and medical care.
