Christ Church directs much of its global mission effort toward Rwanda—a beautiful country recovering from a difficult past. Since a nation-wide genocide in the early nineties, Rwanda has experienced amazing healing. Today, Rwanda has great hope, but rural villages are still searching for ways to care for their children.
Since 2019, Christ Church has partnered with the Province of Rwanda and Compassion International. We are annually building preschools, churches, nutrition programs, and child sponsorships for rural villages, with a goal to bless 1.2 million people in a geographic area barely larger than North Texas. As God calls us to be a church of compassion, Rwanda is a place where compassion can build an powerful legacy.
Five preschools and three churches serving 750 families
Christ Church builds preschools and churches where families are isolated and 75% of Rwandan children lack educational opportunities. Attending school improves every aspect of a child’s life, keeping children safe and uplifting their future.
Daily nutrition programs serving 750 children
Christ Church has established multiple nutrition programs in conjunction with our rural preschools. One cup of enriched porridge provides a child with a daily supply of calories, vitamins, and nutrients, at an age when it is vital for their growth.
Sponsorship support for over 300 children
Christ Church partners with Compassion International to sponsor Rwandan children located in the same villages as our preschool and nutrition programs. Christ Church visits Rwanda annually to meet and serve these children as they grow up.
