The first is Church and our commitment is to see our local Church become all God has called it to be. The second is World Reach which is our commitment to reach into our community in a relevant way so that many people will come to experience the love and life of Christ. Also through World Reach we carry a heart to encourage, empower and strengthen the wider body of Christ to reach its God given purpose. Thirdly our commitment is to Business as we believe that through many people who are called and gifted in this area will develop and provide the necessary resources to reach the many souls across our nation and beyond through a lifestyle increasing productivity and through gift of giving.

World Relief Rwanda

Since 1994, World Relief has been offering hope to communities in Rwanda.  World Relief empowers over 1,500 local churches from 70 denominations to serve as the hands and feet of Christ in their communities.  Responding to the AIDS crisis, World Relief offers programs in prevention, home-based care, orphan support and innovative economic opportunities for people living with the disease.  As local churches reach out to people affected by AIDS, lives are transformed by the hope of Christ.

Children in Rwanda often die of malaria, diarrhea, hepatitis and typhoid, all of which are preventable diseases.  Lack of proper nutrition at young ages often results in stunted physical growth or cognitive deficiencies later on.  World Relief uses the innovative “care group” model to saturate communities with life-giving health lessons, equipping mothers with tools to raise strong, healthy children. 

Recognizing the lack of access to credit for the average Rwandan, World Relief started Urwego to provide financial services to the nation’s poor.  Now a premier microfinance provider in the country, Urwego has gained countless awards and international media attention.  More than 30,000 clients have gained access to credit enabling them to grow or expand their businesses.  World Relief also empowers a group of farmers, mostly widows and orphans, through an essential oil program, where geraniums are grown, distilled, and sold in international markets.

World Relief is supporting the Youth Impact Week with HIV/AIDS training as well as support with the business seminar.
