Outreach International — Organization Profile
Outreach International is a Christian missionary sending and support organization that describes itself as a Missionary Motivation Ministry designed to recruit and serve missionary volunteers for overseas work, especially in places unreached with the Gospel of Christ or difficult to enter. Founded in 1977 by Al Hamilton and John O. Schofield, the organization’s stated primary goal is to obey the Great Commission as recorded in Matthew 28:19–20.
The ministry is based in Shelbyville, Missouri, and supports mission work in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the United States, and other global fields. Public project listings identify work connected to Equatorial Guinea, Germany, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Tanzania, Togo, Uganda, the United States, Zimbabwe, and broader worldwide opportunities.
Outreach International operates as a sending organization for missionary volunteers and mission projects. It helps people explore full-time missions, one-year internships, and field survey opportunities, while also helping missionaries coordinate work through support services and, when appropriate, other organizations. Its ministry areas include teaching, preaching, evangelism, discipleship, Bible translation, church planting, English teaching, medical work, pioneering new fields, and support for people in need.
The organization’s current project listings show a broad network of independent mission efforts and missionaries. Listed ministries include Haiti Active Evangelism, Labors of Love, Refuge of the Pines, Me and My House Outreach, Mexico Missions, Colegio Biblico, the ApMa Project, Pastoral Counseling Ministry, Gateway Community Development Initiative, Togo Christian Mission, Uganda East Africa Outreach, Rescue Innocence, Mission Fields Unlimited, Outreach International Tennessee, Designs for Sharpening Leadership, Global Transformation, Forging Ploughshares, Tiny House Ministries, Vision Venezuela, Ministry of Encouragement, and Outreach International Zimbabwe.
Outreach International’s giving model depends on direct support from churches and individuals. The ministry states that its missionaries and stateside staff are supported by donors, and that gifts may be designated for specific mission projects or sent to the general fund. Supporters may give online, by mail, through bank bill pay, or by contacting the office for help with project account numbers and donation questions.
People can engage with Outreach International by praying for mission workers, giving to mission projects, contacting the organization about service opportunities, supporting missionary families, subscribing to updates, or exploring internships and full-time missionary service. Its distinct contribution is helping Christians move from mission interest to mission service through recruiting, sending, support, consulting, and project coordination for Gospel work around the world.
