Current Projects
Indigenous mission groups around the world spread the gospel in countries where western missionaries are banned. Christian Aid supports these mission groups through prayer and financial assistance.

When you support the project of an indigenous missions group, you allow them to reach out to the unevangelized in their missions field and spread the love of Christ.
