Who We Are

Global Outreach International is a purpose-driven, interdenominational missions sending agency devoted to showing and sharing God’s love around the world. As a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we partner with local churches and individuals to send and support cross-cultural missionaries who serve with compassion, integrity, and bold faith.

Since our beginnings in 1970 as the Agricultural Missions Foundation, we’ve grown from farming-based church-planting work in Latin America to a global movement meeting both spiritual and practical needs. Today, our missionaries serve in dozens of countries through ministries including education, healthcare, theological training, orphan care, human development, and community transformation, all rooted in Christ’s love.

To show and share God’s love.
Meeting practical needs opens hearts to the Gospel, and every act of service is an expression of God’s love and truth.

The Good News to every nation this generation.
With faithful partners, we work toward a world where every people-group has access to the hope found in Jesus Christ.

Our Core Values

These are more than just words on a page—they are lived out in how the organization supports missionaries, equips sending churches, and partners in long‑term Gospel work.

Worship

Global Outreach International places the glory of God and the worship of Jesus Christ at the center of everything it does. Its aim isn’t just to share the Gospel — it's to see people from every people group become worshippers of Christ.

Humility

Inspired by the example of Jesus, the organization values a servant’s heart. Missionaries and staff are encouraged to serve with humility, understanding that they are called to be alongside the people they serve — not above them.

Reliance on the Holy Spirit

Global Outreach believes that God’s Spirit guides every aspect of missions work — from calling missionaries to where they serve and how they serve. Submitting to that guidance is foundational to all decisions and ministry efforts.

Faith

The organization operates with deep faith in God’s provision and power, trusting Him to move hearts, provide resources, and sustain the work of missions in His timing.

The Church as the Sender

GOI values the local church as the biblical sender of missionaries. Instead of replacing the church’s role, they partner with churches — supporting, equipping, and strengthening them so they can send and care for missionaries well.

Testimonials

Real Stories From Missionaries Around the World

In Senegal, where 97% of the population is Muslim, sharing the Gospel openly can be met with resistance. Yet, during one of our Farming God's Way in-field mentoring sessions, I felt led to share the Gospel boldly. Praise God, six men raised their hands to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior! We guided them through a prayer of repentance and connected them with a local pastor for discipleship.

Klint Ostermann, Missionary to Uganda & Texas

In this village, it is an act of treason to become a Christian. Yet, from relationships built through our ministry site, many have made that decision. One student at our sewing school came to trust in Jesus as her Savior. Over the term, her change in behavior led her family to ask enough questions so that they too made this bold decision.

Stephen & Esther Napier, Missionaries to Africa, United States & Middle East

Missions is so important because the Gospel brings not only salvation, but relational healing as well. In Madagascar, for centuries there has been prejudice between the highland Merina people and the Antakarana people with whom we serve. As we have been there these last 10 years, we have seen a slow change taking place.
