Frontiers USA — Organization Profile
Frontiers USA is a Christian mission organization focused on sharing the gospel among Muslim peoples with limited access to Christian witness. The organization’s stated mission is to inspire transformational movements to Christ within least-reached Muslim people groups by sending teams to catalyze change. Frontiers describes its work with the phrase “with love and respect, inviting all Muslim peoples to follow Jesus.”
The organization’s core focus is recruiting, training, sending, and serving long-term teams who live in Muslim communities. Frontiers prioritizes peoples and places with the least access to the gospel and seeks to make disciples among Muslim peoples who do not know the saving message of Jesus Christ. Its approach emphasizes long-term presence, team-based ministry, disciple making, and locally appropriate strategies in the places where workers serve.
Frontiers USA is based in Phoenix, Arizona, and is part of a wider Frontiers network with national offices in multiple countries. The U.S. organization serves churches, mission candidates, long-term workers, short-term participants, and supporters who want to engage Muslim peoples. Its ministry scope includes regions of the Muslim world such as North Africa, the Sahel and Sub-Saharan Africa, Türkiye and the Balkans, the Middle East and Arabian Peninsula, Central Asia and the Caucasus, Southwest Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
The organization operates through a process it describes as recruit, train, send, and serve. Frontiers coaches across the United States help identify followers of Christ who share the organization’s heart for Muslims. Training prepares workers for language learning, disciple making, personal development, and healthy team dynamics. Teams are then sent to least-reached Muslim people groups, while pastoral coaches and other support staff serve workers and their children through the challenges of cross-cultural ministry.
A distinctive part of Frontiers USA’s model is field-governed, locally led, team-based mission work among Muslim peoples. The organization says team leaders make decisions for their own context and that teams serve with a common regional vision while adopting locally appropriate strategies. Frontiers also emphasizes coaching, accountability, grace-filled relationships, and a focus on planting healthy, reproducing churches through disciples who make more disciples.
People can engage with Frontiers USA by praying, giving to the Frontiers Mission Fund, supporting individual workers, exploring short-term trips, beginning the long-term application process, attending events, using resources, or helping a local church take next steps in mission engagement. Churches can connect with Frontiers for opportunities to send, support, and mobilize people for ministry among least-reached Muslim communities.

Christ For the City International — Organization Profile
Christ For the City International (CFCI) is an international mission organization focused on urban ministry, local leadership, and holistic community transformation. Its mission is summarized in the phrase “Transforming Cities by Transforming Lives,” and the organization describes its work as partnering with local leaders to share the love of Jesus worldwide.
CFCI is based in Omaha, Nebraska, where its international office is located. Its ministry extends across Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mali, Nicaragua, Peru, Zimbabwe, the United States, and other locations. The organization reports workers across 16 countries and dozens of cities, with most staff serving as local or national missionaries in their own countries.
The ministry’s core focus is developing local ministry bases that address both spiritual and practical needs in cities. CFCI’s ministries include discipleship, youth outreach, medical care, education, community development, vocational training, children’s programs, feeding centers, gang ministry, health and dental clinics, and other locally shaped outreach efforts. Each ministry base is designed to understand the needs of its community and develop programs with local leaders, churches, educators, businesspeople, and partner ministries.
CFCI’s operating model emphasizes national leadership and long-term presence. The organization states that lasting transformation happens when people within a community are empowered to lead the work themselves. For that reason, most of its missionaries are nationals serving in their own countries, bringing cultural understanding and long-term commitment to local ministry.
The organization also provides mission opportunities for churches, groups, families, and individuals. CFCI offers short-term mission experiences, U.S.-based Urban Plunge trips, international Global Teams, Global Ambassadors extended trips, and long-term missions. Its mission trip process includes orientation, ministry projects, debriefing, and service alongside long-term national missionaries.
People can engage with Christ For the City International by praying, giving to the Transformation Fund, supporting a missionary or project, serving on a short-term or long-term mission team, connecting with a missions director, donating a vehicle, or following ministry updates through CFCI’s blog and social channels. Donations may be made online or mailed to the organization’s Omaha office.
