Few of us will ever give or sacrifice as much as missionaries that are called to serve God overseas. AJM sees it as our spiritual duty to freely give what we have within our reach in order to meet the tangible needs of the missionaries (2 Corinthians 8:9).
Together, we will definitively transform the way we send out and support our missionaries. As you read on, we are excited to show you how AJM can be a 100% free resource for our missionaries, and for you to discover the impact the Church can have for the Kingdom of God when we unite the mission.

No. We would be the first inter-denominational missionary sending organization that would provide resources without administrative fees.
This change would remove the “transactional relationship” that develops when missionaries pay an administrative fee, allowing AJM to give rather than take. Additionally, this provides a greater sense of trust and accountability when the missionaries see that we will make decisions with their best interests in mind.
Meeting this financial goal will allow AJM to care for approximately 200 missionaries with excellence. Our current roster is about 85 missionaries, so The Gospel Initiative will sustain the growth of AJM for several years. We want to develop depth and longevity with our relationships.
Pray for AJM to be directed by God and to give Him the glory! Pray for our missionaries and the projects they are involved in throughout the world. Finally, please pray about who you should tell about AJM and introduce us so that we can faithfully serve alongside more of God’s children and trust Him, together!
“The Gospel Initiative will effectively provide missionaries with extensive access to needed resources like counseling and training while ensuring that the support they receive can be used solely for their life within their ministry. This is a call to bear one another’s burdens with radical generosity for the sake of the Gospel to go forth.”

"Joining AJM was largely based on not just their value of care, but their priority to make Missionary Care available to every individual in the community.
I saw this immediately put into action to meet my needs of support and care. As I experienced others advocating for my wellbeing, I knew that would be part of my journey within AJM. While still being on the field, I can be a part of the care for missionaries that have been on the field long term or those that are just beginning. I get to be a part of “missionaries caring for missionaries.” When we grow tired from our own burdens, we can come together and lift each other up. Finding the strength to hold another’s bur- den while feeling the confidence that someone else is also helping to carry mine. All of us need the reminder that our mental, emotional and spiritual health all matter in our ability to actually fulfill the purpose God has laid in our lives."
"My wife and I, along with our 3 children, were the first family to go into the field as AJM missionaries. After meeting Pierce, I was confident that we would have leaders that would care for us in a relational way. We have been working in Ukraine for 2 years now. Pierce and Diana visited us in Ukraine with their children. That was a huge encouragement for us. We experience unique trials in the ministry we engage in and there is no question if I need to call one of our missionaries in the field, or our leadership, that I can find support.
AJM is an organization that is willing to let people pursue God's calling in their life even if it seems unconventional. I appreciate their willingness to let people take risks and be led by the Spirit. And I also appreciate the willingness to pull people from the field when they are not in a healthy place.
Our family has been blessed to be a part of A Jesus Mission. We are blessed to serve with them in Ukraine. And we look forward to all that God will continue to do through this ministry."
Would you let us come and share about A Jesus Mission and teach what the Word says about mission at your church? We truly desire to see the local church stand behind missions and hope to equip them in supporting missionaries around the world and within their own cites. Our directors want to meet with you and talk about how we can partner in the mission of Christ.
