- A chance to share testimonies from current sponsors in your congregation.

Why NCM Child Sponsorship?
Local Solutions
NCM partners with local congregations, supporting them in their efforts to serve others, create change in their communities, and point people toward the love of God through Christ. Our child development programs seek to develop a church’s local community by addressing their own unique situations and challenges.
Holistic Approach
A holistic approach to child development works toward physical, relational, and spiritual wholeness for children and their families. NCM works to enable children to become the people God created them to be. In order to accomplish this, we address children’s specific needs, such as stability, education, food, and clean water.
Lasting Impact
The goal of Nazarene Compassionate Ministries’ work goes beyond child development projects and humanitarian assistance. Our goal is to see individual and communal transformation in and through Christ. Our faith is at the heart of who we are, what we do, and how we work. We affirm the work of God as the cornerstone of transformation and lasting change.
