Feed, evangelize and disciple at-risk children around the world.
Feeding children is the first step. Guiding them toward a lifetime of faith is the journey. We believe well-trained churches in Africa can effectively disciple at-risk children, transforming lives and communities for Christ.
The Church is God's idea for reaching the lost. So we exist to empower the Church in Africa to feed, evangelize, and disciple at-risk children. We want to see every child reached connected to a well-trained church.
Our Gospel Outreaches happen in the days and weeks surrounding Christmas and Easter. Children receive meals, hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, participate in fun activities, and get connected to a well-trained church.
At Mission to Children, we want to see every child FED. This is our strategy:
We care as much about physical need as we do spiritual need. No child should have to hear the gospel on an empty stomach, so we ensure that every child is physically fed.
Don’t mistake a meal for simply being a meal. Every meal carries with it tangible love, and opens opportunities for the Gospel.
Our mission doesn’t end when a child says yes to Jesus. We equip local churches with training so they are able to disciple children who can transform communities for Christ.
“One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty works.”
Psalm 145:4
For over 52 years, Mission to Children has been a bulwark against both physical and spiritual famine, reaching vulnerable children around the globe. We don’t just feed; we evangelize and disciple, partnering with Christian nationals who share our vision.
We know the despair that cycles of poverty and spiritual emptiness can perpetuate through generations. But we also know that a simple meal can be the first step in a lifelong journey toward fulfillment and faith. Together, we can break the cycle of hopelessness and ensure that every child knows they belong to something greater than themselves.
Be part of a global movement that begins with your church, small group, or family. You can start a ripple effect that reaches hungry children around the world, and connects them to well-trained churches.
Children empowered by the Holy Spirit are just as capable of impacting the Kingdom of God as any adult. Your contribution doesn't just feed a child; it connects them with well-trained churches to plant seeds of hope, nurture young evangelists, and fuel a new generation eager to bring Jesus to their communities.

“Our children are growing in the Word of God and in ministry. The children's teachers also now meet to pray and prepare together and teachers too are growing in the Word of God.”
“The children's teachers are growing as they study and prepare lessons from the materials we provided. The children's ministry is growing not only in number but also in the Word of God. This month they Baptized 40 young children who are from age 12 and have been consistent in discipleship classes”
“One child who is 10 years old thanked us for loving them and taking care of them. He said ‘I always thought celebrations are always for adults and not Children.’”
“Children were so happy to have the opportunity to have meat and drinks. Meat is mostly eaten once in a year or twice in most homes and juice is only taken by children from financially stable families. In my conversation with most children, this event was to them a miracle.”
“Miweni tells us that he has not been sick from hunger related diseases in the of months of Nov-February.”
“It has become known that children are able to eat, and gain weight while parents go to bed hungry. Parents are freed to work in the farms while children are taken care of. Most children have maintained/gained weight during hunger months (Nov-March) when most people drop it during these months. Children now know how to pray.”
“The children ministry in their church had failed, the outreach and the materials provided have brought new life in the children ministry. The children's church is growing.”
“Our location has been a very hard and difficult ground because of the big number of Muslims in the area, it has always been difficult visiting homes. The outreach changed everything, more and more homes are now open and the Muslim children are coming to faith in big numbers.”
Mercy comes from a Malawi village. She is 9 years old. She belongs to Anglican church. She likes going to church every Sunday. However, their church does not have children ministry and therefore, they stay in church for a few hours then she and her friend go out to play until the adults are finished in the service. She says this gathering of children was the first in their area. She said children were taken care of well. They ate, played netball, sang choruses and enjoyed the Bible lessons.
Miriam, who is 14 years old, said ‘I am happy for the love and care you have shown to us it is my first time this year to eat meat, normally we eat meat during Christmas and Juice is a miracle to us.’”
