"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Acts 1:8
St. Thomas Missionaries Around the World
Our Missionaries
Some of our missionaries serve locally, some of them serve in hospitable places, and some of them serve in restricted, dangerous locations. They serve in locations such as the Middle East, Italy, Philippines, France, India, and the USA. One thing they all have in common is their love for people who have not yet heard about Jesus, and sharing the good news of Jesus and the salvation He brings.
We also participate in Operation Christmas Child. With each shoe box gift that is packed, it enables us to reach children worldwide with the good news of God's love and the true meaning of Christmas.
Along with Operation Christmas Child, we have many families that support Compassion International. When you sponsor a child, you'll be personally connected with a child that will know you by name and feel blessed to have someone who loves and cares for them.
