Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Sharing Christ's Passion for the world by serving the most vulnerable through national churches and leaders.

  • Equipping the Church - ServeNow actively partners with churches, pastors, and leaders in 27+ countries worldwide. Most of these are in poorer, remote, slum like areas where training and access to resources is limited or non-existent. ServeNow provides these churches and leaders with bibles, scripture resources, and training in a series of discipleship and leadership material, so they can systematically instruct their congregations. In the last fiscal year, there were 5,633 pastor conferences representing 22,211 church partnerships. 427,810 Basic Series books were printed, with 506,115 being distributed within the same fiscal year. 58,301 bibles and other Scripture resources were also distributed. 168 bicycles for pastors with no other means of transportation were given out. Primarily through a video program called The Road to Paradise, but also through other online efforts, we reached 136,348,968 with the Gospel message. We saw 18,802 people come to faith in Jesus.

    Expenses $654,636 · Grants $90,000 · Revenue $340,321

  • Educating for Eternity - The second pillar of ServeNow provides education and tutoring opportunities for disadvantaged children, skill-training for at risk women, and micro-enterprise projects for poor families or vulnerable individuals. Through several centers in two countries in Asia, activities for kids in Ukraine, and sponsored children being provided an education in multiple countries in Africa, we served 7,942 children. We had six building construction projects revolving around children's education. 11,366 women were trained through tailoring, cosmetology, baking, and computer classes. 412 people benefited from micro-enterprise projects. 61,220 people went through awareness training on social issues such as human trafficking, child abuse, and women's rights. 147 received mental health support.

    Expenses $1,029,652 · Grants $25,000 · Revenue $343,386

  • Outstretched Hands - The third pillar of ServeNow addresses people's immediate, urgent, physical, and tangible basic needs to demonstrate God's love in action. Over 1,704 people were provided some form of war relief in Ukraine from help with home repairs, and other humanitarian needs. 1,859 people were served via medical aid, 3,360 people benefited from clean water. 1,150 benefited from disease prevention via mosquito nets. 90,166 people were provided with food relief aid, 25,968 refugees were served, and 5,324 people were helped with other disaster relief needs.

    Expenses $1,095,896 · Grants $25,000 · Revenue $147,355

  • Ministry Coordination and Getting Involved - ServeNow USA provides partnership, ministry, leadership, and project support as part of its program services worldwide. Often coordinating with key National Leaders, our support allows them to hire competent national staff, which thereby also supports the local community in these countries. In a few countries we work with partner organizations to carry out our mission. ServeNow engages people with means to get involved through short term teams and volunteer opportunities. In the last fiscal year, a small team went to Ukraine and Uganda.
