Our Partners

Mexico

CA Church has partnered with Pastor Tomas and Tarahumara Ministries for over 15 years. Tarahumara Ministries began out of the desire to reach the impoverished Tarahumara tribe living in the remote Copper Canyon of northern Mexico. Today Pastor Tomas and his team have expanded their work into many other areas of Mexico, working alongside local pastors in Babicora, Ensenada, Ahuatitla, Jalisco, Durango, Oaxaca and Chiapas.

Philippines

CA Church partners with two organizations in the Philippines, Gentle Hands and Metro World Child. Gentle Hands is a child and youth welfare agency on the front lines of rescue and rehabilitation. Gentle Hands desires to improve human life and communities through the love of Jesus and family centred care. Metro World Child (MWC), reaches children in the Philippines living in abject poverty. Each week MWC partners with local churches to reach more than 20,000 impoverished and neglected children through their Sunday School program and visitation.

Middle East

Zimbabwe

CA Church has partnered with Villages of Hope Africa (VOH) for many years. VOH is an organization bringing hope to children in need throughout 5 countries in Africa by providing education, nutrition, shelter and healthcare. Their mission is to bring lasting hope to orphans and vulnerable children by providing them, and their families, with holistic and loving care so they can embrace adulthood as contributing members of society.

International Workers

Jesus called us to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. We encourage everyone to boldly go outside of their cultural context either as a short-term mission participant or a long-term International Worker. Spreading God’s love is every person’s responsibility and we can all participate. Because of this CA Missions partners with, and supports, many individuals who have taken seriously the call on their lives to share the Good News to the ends of the earth.
