Mission
To mobilize the church to put its faith into action for the lost, last, and least of the world. The Great Commission's mandate to "Go" is at the heart of our purpose and actions. We are a catalyst and facilitator for outreach for people and their churches, including recruiting, training, and sending missions leaders
Programs
2 programs
Recruiting, training, & sending missions teams: We help churches in organizing andaccomplishing missions trips that are with church members, and run through churchfinancial books not ours. We help recruit, train, and send the leaders and teams ofthese trips and work to help arrange critical components, best-practices, ministrypartnership, and after-trip church action. In 2024, we continue to take a leadership role in trips as well, including FaithQuest-led & co-led trips to meet and work with partners in the Middle East, India, Morocco, Spain, and more. 2024 was another year of international fears for travel at times. This news continues to spur more interest in action within the US more than in the past. This includes interest in exploring and experimenting with new partners and local opportunities, and in new and bigger ways than usual. Many courageous leaders and volunteers went all-in for new outreach, often with big results, pretty exciting.
Hosting Inspirational Outreach-Oriented Events and Activities: Our Team FaithQuestactivity includes organizing and hosting events where people and teams from many churches can join together to raise awareness and support for missions and outreachactivities. These events include running, cycling, hiking, triathlons, and other challenge events that rally people and their churches to put their feet and their faith into action. We challenge people to give to God's work everywhere and to widely serve and share the story of the needs of the lost, hungry, thirsty, sick, trafficked, refugees and other marginalized and suffering children and adults from the extreme poor of the world.Additional Explanation:The above 4a, 4b, 4c, expenses & revenue are not allocated separately to each of thediverse activities supporting the mission. The vast majority of FaithQuest programsare accomplished by recruiting, inspiring, and equipping volunteers in the localchurch who in turn work with not only us and their churches but also serve and givedirectly to the Christian missions and relief organizations we have introduced tothem to. We celebrate that this serving and giving does not need to happen all through FaithQuest, and that our role is to be a catalyst for Kingdom-action widely through churches and organizations everywhere. The total program service expenses for 2024 were $256,144 including total grants of $19,563 on total revenue of $257,693.
