Our Vision

Make Your Church Intentionally International

We seek to empower local churches to evangelize, disciple, and integrate their Next Door Nations. The Great Commission work needs to be done right in your own neighborhoods.

🌍

Evangelize

Share the Gospel with people from every nation who are already in your community. 165+ million people came to the U.S. from every country.

📖

Disciple

Walk alongside new believers from diverse backgrounds. Provide Bible studies, mentorship, and community in multiple languages.

🤝

Integrate

Welcome internationals into the life of your church and community. Nearly 46 million U.S. residents were born elsewhere.
