Children's Ministries

The sponsoring of children enables MVI to fund the establishment of ministries to impoverished, starving, ill or orphaned children. The sponsorship funds are pooled with the rest of the children sponsored from the ministry to guarantee the overall budget for the ministry. Below is a list of various opportunities where you can become involved in Children's Ministries.

• Child of the Month: A monthly donation to children will go towards Feeding Centers, education and medical care for children in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Haiti, Peru, Uganda, Zambia, India, the Philippines, etc. Donors will receive a postcard each month highlighting a child who has benefitted from the Child of the Month program.

• Feeding Centers: Feeding Centers are set up in local churches, administered by the pastor, run by the church members and supported through your sponsorship. Three hundred dollars per month enables local churches to feed three hot, nutritious meals a week to fifty or more starving children in their community. After the meal they hear about Jesus. Returning to their homes of tin and cardboard, they tell their parents what they have learned about the good news of Jesus.
  Make an investment in these children’s future… Missionary Ventures International’s primary goal in supporting feeding centers is to share the love and message of Jesus Christ with the children that come for food. We want to give them eternal food as well as physical food. Jesus is truly the answer to these children’s needs. Everyone in the community is touched by the feeding center. It is a beautiful example of the love of Christ reaching out to hungry people.
  A little goes a long way… A start up cost of $600 is needed to purchase a cooking burner, pots and pans for food preparation, eating utensils and flannel boards to aid in telling the children about Jesus.
  You can visit a feeding center… Missionary Ventures International welcomes your personal involvement in “Carrying the WORD to the world”. Call the Missionary Ventures International office for information about going on a team trip and ministering to the needs of the children in these feeding centers.
• Christian Schools: Did you know some children are not able to go to school because they cannot afford the tuition or appropriate clothes.
  In many areas, schools don’t even exist. Some of the schools are running on double sessions, maximizing the facilities. Many classes are without books in one or more subjects.
  Missionary Ventures International is building several Christian schools each year at a cost of approximately $50,000 each.
  The investment you make can change a country. These schools are central to the development of future leaders.
  Can you contribute to the building cost for the next school or expansion of an existing school? Can you help support a student for one year? Can you help fund the books that are needed?
