About us
A small prayer group that became a worldwide mission
Ebenezer Mission Worldwide began in 2009 with a handful of believers praying over a single village. Today our six departments serve communities on four continents — always alongside local churches and leaders.
Our Mission
To share the love of Jesus in word and deed by serving under-resourced communities with health care, education, discipleship, sport, and sustainable farming.
Our Vision
Thriving communities where families are healthy, children are educated, churches are strong, and no neighbor is overlooked.
Our Values
Dignity before charity. Listening before leading. Local partnership over outside solutions. Full transparency with every gift entrusted to us.
Our history
Hitherto the Lord has helped us
The name Ebenezer means 'stone of help.' It marks a place where God showed up. Every clinic day, classroom, and harvest is another stone we set down in gratitude.
What began as a weekly prayer meeting grew into medical outreaches, then schools, then farming cooperatives — each one requested by the communities themselves. We have never launched a program we were not invited into, and we never leave before local leaders are ready to carry it forward.
