Caring for the vulnerable is a central theme through the Bible. It’s essential to loving our neighbours—the ones next door and the ones on the other side of the world. When a crisis hits, someone’s world is shattered. It’s all they can do to focus on immediate needs like food, water, clothing, and shelter. And when another person comes alongside them to provide relief by meeting those needs and showing the love of Christ, restoration can begin.
Serving people around the world isn’t easy alone, but it’s possible with the help of some incredible global mission partners. ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency) is our church’s global mission partner and you can be confident that you’re joining some of the best in the world as we do God’s work together.

The PROMISE Project is a four year program that ADRA Canada is conducting for mothers, babies and young children living in remote villages in the Eastern province of Rwanda. PROMISE will be improving the lives of over 100,000 people in 96 communities. PROMISE will be supporting 18 health facilities and 400 health staff in three counties.
PROMISE is funded through Global Affairs Canada and a partnership with Christian Children’s Fund of Canada and Emmanuel International.
This brief video report gives a good introduction to the project.
