For the Nations exists to enable everyone to get involved with God’s global mission. By supporting and engaging with partner missionaries, churches, and ministries around the world, we extend our impact as a part of God’s global church well beyond the Bay Area.

Are you passionate about what God is doing outside of our local communities? For the Nations helps us to have missional hearts and to develop skills which equip us to take action to support God’s global plan.

SUCCESS STORIES

WK POON

Japan

It has reminded me to pray bigger and more boldly not only for the people of Japan, but for the people that are here. That even when I can’t see or believe it, that it would surely come to be because God has promised it, and that we can always rest on His faithfulness.

KEVIN DO

Malaysia

This trip taught me that being on mission doesn’t have to be loud or flashy. Sometimes, the greatest impact is simply giving a child space to be known, loved, and free in Christ.
