Church Partnerships
“Truly I tell you whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it for me. “
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.
How your Church can be Involved
Mobilise your congregation to partner us in our community initiatives. Unite with us through prayer and service. Our programmes help faith communities take real action to promote human transformation and seek justice for the world's most vulnerable.
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.
Global Emergencies
When disaster strikes, World Vision is one of the first organisations to respond within 72 hours. Your church can stand with children in crisis by partnering with us on our emergency response and mobilising prayer for the afflicted.
Speaking Engagements & Ministry Collaborations
Invite a World Vision speaker to your church service, fellowship groups, or organisational gatherings. We bring firsthand accounts from the field that bring God's heart for the poor to life.
