About People to People Ministries

As the benevolence arm of World Missions Ministries, People to People seeks to provide a platform of ministry for individuals, churches and missionaries as we show acts of love to a hurting world. For over two decades, we have preached the gospel to the poor by feeding, educating and providing medical care to thousands of children, sending medical teams to impoverished nations and rebuilding devastated communities after natural disasters.

Through your partnership with us, People to People continues to be a spearhead of ministry and outreach in the most difficult and unreached areas of the world. By meeting the physical needs of a hurting people, radically transforming societies and bringing hope to a world in despair may Christ’s salvation be made known and His Kingdom established.
