Seekers Church continues to support many missions and ministries in the United States and other countries. The amount budgeted for international giving this year approaches 20% of what we expect to receive in offerings over the course of the year. Once our budget for the year was approved, and the overall amount available for international giving had been determined by the Stewards of Seekers Church, all Seekers were invited to request support for missions or ministries where they are personally involved.
After worship on February 19th the community met to determine how our international giving will be distributed. At that community meeting we affirmed support for 13 international missions and ministries:
World Organization for Resource Development & Education (WORDE)
New Story Leadership - Israel/Palestine
Rostropovich Vishnevskaya Foundation – Palestine
Bokamoso Youth Foundation – South Africa
Othandweni Day Care and Guest House – South Africa
Gospel Power and Truth Ministries – Uganda – Uganda
Hope International Development Agency – Myanmar
PAVA (Programa de Ayuda a los Vecinos del Altiplano) – Guatemala
Collegio Miguel Angel Asturias – Guatemala
San Lucas Toliman Reforestation Project – Guatemala
Sustainable Organic Integrated Livelihoods (SOIL) – Haiti
Cooperativa de Servicios Múltiples “Tininiska” R. L. – Nicaragua
