All donations through March 2024 will go to the EUROPE PROJECT
The Small Church Conferences are in places where the need is great, but their ability to pay is limited, so this tour of nine cities will cost about $10,000 above what they can pay. If you can help us meet this financial need, we’d appreciate it. All donations are tax-deductible.
In addition, if you’d like to know how to partner with us on a monthly basis with finances, prayer, or time and skills, use the Contact Form to set up a face-to-face meeting in person or on Zoom. We’d love to tell you our plans and how you or your church can work with us to help small churches in need.
There are three easy ways to support this work financially.
All donations go to the ministry of Helping Small Churches Thrive and are tax-deductible.
