Local & Global Partners
Our Mission
NativityMissions is making church matter by influencing our world for Christ. Our strategy is to pursue this vision through strategic partnerships. We’re not out to create new ministries but to partner with the works God is already blessing. We’re aiming to focus strategically on a few excellent partnerships, not spread out our resources across many different efforts. Learn more about our current strategic partners below.
