World Vision’s mission is to follow our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to where the need is greatest, and to work with the poor and oppressed from all backgrounds to promote human transformation, seek justice, and bear witness to the good news of the Kingdom of God. We witness Christ by sharing Jesus' light through actions of love and kindness.

As a global Christian humanitarian organisation, we partner with churches to respond to God’s call to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the world’s toughest places through missional experiences that build faith and encourage generosity. We invite congregations to look into the realities of poverty and injustice, and to put their faith into action by taking part in God’s story of restoration for the most vulnerable, creating a Christ-centred impact globally.

"By this all people will know that you are my disciples. If you have love for one another"

- John 13:35 ESV

Our Missional Roots

World Vision was born from a radical vision of mission — one that embraces the holistic restoration of lives broken by material deprivation and starved of spiritual hope. Our founder Bob Pierce encountered the suffering of Asia's most vulnerable children in the 1940s, and it changed everything.

"Let my heart be broken by the things
that break the heart of God," - Bob Pierce

The legacy of Dr. Pierce's lifelong commitment — bearing witness to God's Kingdom through compassion and the pursuit of biblical justice — lives on in our work today. We remain dedicated to addressing the needs of vulnerable children and families worldwide, regardless of their ethnicity, religion, gender, or nationality.

Chosen — Child Sponsorship

Chosen is the heart of the gospel – God chooses us, loves us, and sees us. God has inspired this new invitation to child sponsorship, where instead of us choosing a child, the child has the power to choose. This connection that begins with a child choosing us, grows our compassion, broadens our worldview and invites us into a closer walk with Jesus.

Faith-in-Action Virtual Mission Trip - Reflections from Yio Chu Kang Chapel
Covid-19 has caused major disruption to the world over the past couple of years. Organisations had to quickly rethink how they conducted their operations in order to comply with the latest Safe Management Measures, as well as how to stay relevant in the changing world. Likewise, the church has to evaluate how it can continue to participate in cross-cultural missions in light of Covid restrictions. When the opportunity to partner with World Vision in a Faith-in-Action Virtual trip to Cebu, Philippines arose, a team of 10 youths and young adults from Yio Chu Kang Chapel quickly jumped on board.

How to Pray for Child Brides on International Day of the Girl
In his letter to the Ephesians, the Apostle Paul writes: "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her". However, child marriage departs from God's design for marriage. Instead of mutual respect, love, and honour, child marriage neglects a girl's well-being, causing her to lose her childhood and opportunities to realise her God-given potential. Join us as we pray for child brides this International Day of the Girl.
