Nepal - An orphanage is maintained to care for those children left without parents regardless of reason. Food and supplies as well as an education is fully funded for those who are at the orphanage. Another center is working in western Nepal to combat the human trafficking that is prevalent in the area. Training Seminars for pastors are conducted to train them in theology, better equipping them to serve their congregations. Christian teaching literature is purchased or developed, also to augment the training of the pastors and congregation members. Small scale economic development has been started. Food and medical relief has been provided in economically affected areas as the need arises.
Romania - The Hungarian language portion of Romania - This project primarily consists of establishing churches and preaching venues. One pastor of a functioning congregation is financially supported.
