World Vision is a Christian relief, development and advocacy organization dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice.  Inspired by their Christian values, they are dedicated to working with the world’s most vulnerable people.  
They serve all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender.


Transforming Communities
 

Because poverty has both local and global causes, World Vision works within communities and across geographical areas to help individuals and groups improve the well-being of children and overcome poverty.
 

Responding to Disasters
 

World Vision is globally positioned to help with immediate needs like food, water and shelter when disaster strikes and to help communities to recover and prevent future catastrophes.
 

Seeking Global Change
 

World Vision engages institutions, donors and the general public to address the global problems that perpetuate poverty. Advocacy staff empower communities to speak up for their rights, locally and globally.

ENGAGE

What can you do to engage with the World Vision?

Here at FCC the Children's ministry is taking part in working with World Vision by sponsoring and corresponding with 4 children from places like Mali, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Chile.  They are encouraged to bring in their allowance, to learn stewardship, and to write letters telling the children about their lives and interests here in the United States.  Our hope is that this will teach the children that God calls us all to be His missionaries at any age.
