Kingdom ministries find themselves inundated by need. Ministers and missionaries find themselves on the front line fighting an uphill battle. The needs surpass the capacity of many ministries to continue aiding the hurting while teaching about Christ’s love. The need is greater than their available means. SIBI desires to help you connect to areas around the world where our partner schools are located and join forces to provide aid and keep God’s blessings flowing. Your gifts will provide fuel for those on the front line to keep Christ’s light shining.
The objective of this Global Relief Ministry is to preach the gospel by meeting the physical needs that are so prevalent in today’s world.
In the past, SIBI has provided for needs in Haiti and Mexico City after devastating earthquakes; in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Houston after hurricanes; and in Ukraine during conflicts in 2014 and now in the current turmoil. The Global Relief Ministry continues in that spirit and will strive to provide for the needs of Christians around the world so they can continue the ministry of the Gospel.
CONTINUED SUPPORT FOR UKRAINE
For 25 years SIBI has been training preachers and church leaders in Ukraine, first in Donetsk and more recently in Kyiv. War caused us to move the school in 2014, and now war has forced us to alter operations once again. Our hearts ache for all of Ukraine and especially for our students, graduates, and brethren there. We pray for them and for those who have chosen the path that puts them in harm’s way.
In response to the ongoing needs of the Ukrainian Christians, SIBI's Global Relief Ministry has implemented a long-term plan of intervention to assist our brothers and sisters spiritually, physically, and emotionally. Funds raised through this effort will be used solely for continued relief efforts for the Ukrainians. If you would like to make a donation toward this effort, you can give online by clicking the Give to GRM - Ukraine button on the right or send your contribution to SIBI with the designation of Global Relief Ministry.
The Director of the children's hospital in Kyiv asked us for additional help since there is an ever-increasing number of orphans due to the war. Click here to read the latest update and to learn how you can help support our Global Relief Ministry.
Due to the limitations of our resources, the Global Relief Ministry is only able to work in the 45 countries where we have connections through international partner schools. We do have ministry partners who work to help people in other areas of the world. Please consider contacting Healing Hands International for international opportunities or Churches of Christ Disaster Relief for domestic disasters.
